Ohio school voucher scheme ruled unconstitutional but stays active during US court appeal
Ohio's EdChoice school voucher programme will remain in effect during an ongoing legal battle, despite being ruled unconstitutional by a Franklin County judge. The ruling was stayed, allowing over $1 billion in taxpayer-funded scholarships to continue supporting private school attendance. Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost confirmed the state's intention to appeal the decision. The case, brought by public school advocates, may reach the Ohio Supreme Court and has drawn nationwide attention to US education funding policies.
