Turner vs. Clayton Board of Education Ruling

Rachel Bluestone, copy editor • May 1, 2012

Earlier this morning, Judge David Lee Vincent III ruled in favor of Clayton in the influential Turner vs. Clayton Board of Education case.

In his ruling, Vincent focused on whether or not it is possible to abide by Statute 167.131 (which states that if a school district becomes unaccredited, then the school district must pay the tuition for their students to attend a nearby accredited school district).

He suggested that the student transfers would cause a financial burden on not only the unaccredited school district, but also on the accredited school district.

As a result of Vincent’s ruling, unaccredited school districts will not have to pay tuition for their students to attend an accredited school district. Additionally, Clayton, and other accredited school districts, will not have to accept students from unaccredited districts.
