San Antonio School District Vs. Rodriquez

The San Antonio School District and Rodriguesz Rodriguezs are operated by parents and their children attend elementary and junior high schools in Edgewood Indecent School District. Approximately 90% of students are Mexican Americans and 6% are African Americans. In Rodriks, plaintiffs filed a class action on behalf of children of low school age. They claim that the school's confidence in local property taxes is wealthy and violates equal protection requirements.

Beginning in San Antonio, MALDEF was the center of many state Mexican-Americans for the sake of equity. It represents the poor region of San Antonio, Edgewood Independent School District, which required state public school funding systems to discriminate poorer students. Many of them are Mexican American or Latino. When Maldov appealed the state in 1987, only 10% of public funds' public funds flowed to the border area and South Texas where many Mexican-based residents were living. There are only two Ph.D. courses in this area. Litigation led to state law to strengthen higher education in border areas

The district, due to the relatively low property tax of the area, asserts that students in public schools lack service due to lack of funds, but that rich areas are the opposite, so that students in that area Instead of prosecuting the state. They believed that the Equal Protection Section of the Fourteenth Amendment provides for equal funding among districts, but the court finally rejected their claim. "Constitution" does not guarantee basic rights of education, but "equal protectionist clause" thinks that it does not need "equal or complete equality" between school districts.
