61. Brown V. Board Of Education Of Topeka, Kansas, 1954 exchange views with other students, and, in general, to learn with added force to children in grade and high schools. stated by a finding in the kansas case by http://hs1.hst.msu.edu/~hst306/documents/brown.html

Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, 1954 74 Supreme Court Reporter, p. 686-693 347 U.S. 483 BROWN ET AL. V. BOARD OF EDUCATION OF TOPEKA, SHAWNEE COUNTY, KAN., ET AL. BRIGGS ET AL. V. ELLOITT ET AL. DAVIS ET AL. V. COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD OF PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY, VA., ET AL. GEBHART ET AL. V. BELTON ET AL. Reargued Dec. 7, 8, 9, 1953. Decided May 17, 1954. No. 10: Mr. Chief Justice Warren delivered the opinion of the Court. These cases come to us from the States of Kansas, South Carolina, Virginia, and Delaware. They are premised on different facts and different local conditions, but a common legal question justifies their consideration together in this consolidated opinion. The plaintiffs contend that segregated public schools are not "equal" and cannot be made "equal," and that hence they are deprived of the equal protection of the laws. Because of the obvious importance of the question presented, the Court took jurisdiction. Argument was heard in the 1952 Term, and reargument was heard this Term on certain questions propounded by the Court. Reargument was largely devoted to the circumstances surrounding the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868. It covered exhaustively consideration of the Amendment in Congress, ratification by the states, then existing practices in racial segregation, and the views of proponents and opponents of the Amendment. This discussion and our own investigation convince us that, although these sources cast some light, it is not enough to resolve the problem with which we are faced. At best, they are inconclusive. The most avid proponents of the post-War Amendments undoubtedly intended them to remove all legal distinctions among "all persons born or naturalized in the United States." Their opponents, just as certainly, were antagonistic to both the letter and the spirit of the Amendments and wished them to have the most limited effect. What others in Congress and the state legislatures had in mind cannot be determined with and degree of certainty.

The state must close its public schools this fall while it fixes constitutional flaws in its system for distributing aid to those schools, a district judge ruled Tuesday in a case that is already under appeal to the Kansas Supreme Court. Video Judge Rules Kansas Schools Must Close The order issued by Shawnee County District Judge Terry Bullock anticipates he will soon issue a follow up restraining order preventing the spending of any money after June 30. That means the Tuesday's order will not affect the current academic year. Dan Biles, an attorney for the State Board of Education, said an appeal of Tuesday's order will be filed quickly, and could stay Bullock's order past the start of the new school year.

Sebelius' proposed increase for schools isn't enough, lead attorney in funding lawsuit says By Scott Rothschild , Journal-World Tuesday, January 20, 2004 Topeka Gov. Kathleen Sebelius' proposed tax increase isn't enough to fix the unconstitutional school-aid system, according to a lead attorney in the lawsuit that led a judge to declare Kansas school financing inadequate and tell lawmakers to spend an additional $1 billion. advertisement "It's kind of like giving a thimbleful of water to someone dying of thirst," said Alan Rupe, a Wichita attorney. "Of course, they are going to want it, but it isn't enough to solve the problem." Rupe represents the school districts that successfully sued the state over funding issues. In December, District Judge Terry Bullock of Topeka declared the school-finance system shortchanged students, especially minorities. He gave the Legislature until July 1 to fix the problems. Last week, Sebelius opened the 2004 Legislature by offering a plan to increase state income, sales and property taxes to bankroll a $304 million spending increase for schools over a three-year period.

Kansas Territory having been organized May 30, 1854, its first Territorial Legislature passed a school law August 30, 1855, and from that date the history of the public school system of Kansas properly began. The Territorial System. - Its object is indicated by the statues of 1855, Chapter 144, Article 2, Section 1, which reads as follows: There shall be established a common school, or schools, in each of the counties of this Territory, which shall be open and free for every class of white citizens between the ages of five and twenty-one years, provided that persons over the age of twenty-one years may be admitted into such schools on such terms as the Trustees of such district may direct. No Exclusion Because of Color. - Section 71 of Chapter 8 of the laws of 1858, declares: All school districts established under the authority of this act shall be free and without charge for tuition to all children between the age of five and twenty-one years, and no sectarian instruction shall be allowed therein. This section continued in force during the remaining period of the Territorial existence of Kansas.
