School Aid

The Campaign for Fiscal Equity lawsuit has now been around long enough so that, if it were a student, it'd probably be in junior high by now. This is the lawsuit, covered variously in the press over the years, alleging inequality in school funding which shortchanges NYC/urban students at the expense of property-rich suburbs. It's back at the Court of Appeals, and some are suggesting this will be the last go-around before action must be taken to revise the state's education funding system.
