Kansas schools anxiously await Court’s decision

The Kansas Supreme Court has yet to tell the state’s citizens if they are spending enough on their schools.

That’s a potential problem because the same court has said the schools can’t be funded past the end of the month and won’t have money to open. That’s a little more than two weeks from now.

Should Kansans be worried? A little. Courts are always unpredictable, and there’s a slim chance the justices could order the schools to close on schedule. That would be troublesome for districts now and a disaster about seven weeks later when schools are scheduled to open.
