- Summary:
-
This booklet discusses the Horton v. Meskill case in which the Hartford, Connecticut, Superior Court ruled that the state's school financing system did not comply with state constitutional provisions concerning equal protection and education. It then outlines the legislature's reaction to the ruling--the guaranteed tax base (GTB)--and discusses the way the GTB works. The GTB legislation is included in its entirety as an addendum, as are calculations for a GTB grant to a hypothetical town, estimates of the grants to be given to towns in 1976, and examples of educational resources available to towns of similar size.
