JUNEAU — The Alaska Supreme Court has signaled that it could issue a final ruling next month on a trial court decision that prohibited the use of public homeschool funds at private and religious schools.
In April, Judge Adolf Zeman struck down as unconstitutional two state statutes that have been used to reimburse private school tuition with publicly-funded homeschool allotments. But the extent of that practice is not fully known.
The plaintiffs in the case — several parents and teachers — requested that Zeman’s decision be paused until June 30, allowing those students to complete the school year with minimal interruptions. The state of Alaska, meanwhile, had asked for a stay until the state supreme court issued its own decision, which could take months.
