Kentucky's constitutional barrier to charter school funding

Rule Changes

Authored the unanimous opinion striking down HB 9

Kentucky authorized charter schools in 2017. Nine years later, not a single one has opened. On February 19, 2026, the Kentucky Supreme Court unanimously struck down House Bill 9, the state's 2022 charter school funding law, ruling that the legislature cannot direct public education dollars to charter schools because they are not "common schools" under the state constitution.
