The Church, the State and the Schools: Contemporary Issues in Law and Policy.
Vergon, Charles B., Ed.
This monograph analyzes contemporary legal controversies concerning religion, the states, and the schools and the interface between law and education. The introduction provides an overview of issues treated in the following seven chapters and includes a series of tables that place recent controversies in the historical context of prior U.S. Supreme Court precedent. Part 1, "Remedial Education Programs for Private School Children: Judicial Developments and Future Prospects" (Michael W. McConnell) and "Shared Time Programs on Public School Premises: Private Rights and Public Responsibilities" (Linda L. Bruin). Part 2, "Policy Communication and Implementation: The Remedial Services and Shared Time Rulings," contains three chapters: "Intergovernmental Communications and Interpretations"; "Impact and Implications at the Local Level: A Public School Point of View" (Elmer Vruggink); and "Implementation Problems and Prospects: A Private School Perspective" (Donald Cook). Part 3, "Religious and Governmental Influences on Education: The Continuing Conflict," presents two chapters: "Religious Influences in the Public Schools" (Gail Paulus Sorenson) and "The Constitution and State Regulation of Private Schooling" (Tyll van Geel). Part 4, "References and Resources," provides a bibliography, Supreme Court summaries, constitutional and statutory references, and information about the monograph's contributors. (CJH)
