What happened
A family filed a federal lawsuit on October 27 challenging Vermont’s Town Tuition and Dual Enrollment programs. The family sought funding for their daughter’s tuition at Mount St. Joseph Academy, a Catholic high school. Government officials denied the request because Act 73 eliminates religious schools from the Town Tuition Program.

Why it matters
The lawsuit raises a practical question regarding the educational aid available to families whose local school districts lack high schools. If the court rules in favor of the family, it could alter how public funds are allocated to private educational institutions within Vermont.
