"Alaska's Education Funding Debate: Homeschool Allotments and Private Schools"

TL;DR Summary
Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy plans to appeal a court decision that struck down statutes allowing public funds to be used for private and religious schools. The decision has caused concern among lawmakers, educators, and parents. The state is seeking to halt the court order and is considering options such as a constitutional amendment or an "education dividend" to address the issue. The ruling's implications are being debated, and the state Supreme Court's decision could lead to an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
