Early Decisions By Gerald Card P. 377
Title and Citation McInnis v. Shapiro, 293 F. Supp. 327 (Ill. 1968), Aff’d sub nom. McInnis v. Ogilvie, 394 U.S. 322 (1969)
Facts and Issue • Inequality of financing education because of wide variations in expenditures per student • It did not apportion money according to student need
Holding • Court agreed that equal expenditures per student were inappropriate but was unable to devise a plan to fix it • There was not enough data to understand the states finance system • There was a lack of agreement over the goals of schooling and what was a basic education • There were too many generalizations and not enough quantifiable evidence
Significance There was a problem that at this point could not be fixed
