Several states are attempting to challenge the established precedent that permits undocumented children to attend public school without paying tuition.
All public schools in the United States are mandated to provide education to every student, regardless of immigration status.
In 1982, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the case of Plyler v. Doe that immigrant students residing in Texas have the right to attend school free of charge, irrespective of their citizenship status. This decision was significant as it overturned a 1975 Texas law that allowed public school districts to impose tuition on these students or deny them access to education altogether.
Since the Supreme Court’s ruling, public schools have been required to offer the same educational opportunities to all students, fostering an inclusive educational environment.
