Justices rule that state constitution doesn't require schools to provide transportation.-IN

The Indiana Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that public schools are not constitutionally required to bus students to and from school.

The ruling further clarifies state law, which already permitted public school corporations to opt out of providing transportation services.

The case stems from a decision by Franklin Township Community Schools to discontinue free bus service in the 2011-12 school year. Parents, upset by the district's action, filed a class-action lawsuit based on the premise that students had a constitutional right to bus service.

Just when I thought that IN had sunk to a new low with their right to discriminate law.....

2. The state constitution might be a kind of weird place to put such a thing.

Your constitution isn't supposed cover absolutely every aspect of life, that's why you've got legislators to make new laws.
