The Assault Upon State School Finance Systems.

McGhehey, M. A.

This paper outlines the historical background leading to the California Serrano vs Priest decision, discusses the implications of that decision, and suggests what might be done to fashion the elements of a State aid formula to meet the tests of equity and fairness demanded by Serrano. The author presents the various equalizing formulas and discusses who should assume the leadership in State aid distribution. (JF)
