Text (slide 22):
State laws prohibiting choice
The only type of State law that can limit or prevent the choice option is a law that prohibits public school choice through restrictions on public school assignments or the transfer of students from one public school to another public school.
Other laws, such as those that mandate specific student-teacher ratios, may make providing choice options more difficult, but may not be used to prohibit parental choices.
