The OK court does a good job distinguishing charters from privates to avoid Carson v Makin but ADF will seek cert. on this issue and my sense is that the Court will expand it and Fulton to say “if you have charters at all, you can’t exclude religious ones.”

Charter schools create these hybrid monsters that are privately run but publicly funded—are they still “government” schools? The major selling point is that they are NOT, that they’re something different. Otherwise why have them?

Wouldn't SCOTUS have to hold that "no aid" provisions like the one in the OK Constitution are unconstitutional? Otherwise, independent state grounds resolve the case. I'm not saying SCOTUS wouldn't do that, but that's a big step. I think they will avoid this case.

Sounds like we shouldn't have charters at all, we should just triple the money going to public schools.
