K-12 EducationInitiative Measure #42 would protect each childs fundamental right to educational opportunity through the 12th grade by amending Section 201 of the Mississippi Constitution to require that the State must provide and the legislature must fund an adequate and efficient system of free public schools. This initiative would also authorize the chancery courts of this State to enforce this section with appropriate injunctive relief.
Should the State be required to provide for the support of an adequate and efficient system of free public schools?
