Preferred term

Rose v. Council for Better Education  

Definition(s)

  • Rose v. Council for Better Education (1989) was a major school-funding case based on adequacy arguments inspired by the language of state constitutions. In Rose, the Supreme Court of Kentucky interpreted the commonwealth's constitutional provision as mandating its general assembly to “provide an efficient system of common schools throughout the state.” The court held that the general assembly fell far short of its duty by failing to enact laws to provide an “efficient” education.
