I agree with the decision in the Leandro v. State case. I think it is important that every child have a sound basic education. I am also glad that the court then defined what a sound basic education is supposed to look like.

I do agree with the decision of LeandroVS. State. I believe that it is important to provide children with the right to an equal education. I think that it's important that teachers are paid equally because that helps to make sure that teachers are happy and will stay in their positions longer. If you have the option to make more money in a school that has more funding, most teachers are going to take that offer. I also agree that all schools should be provided with the educational materials that they need. We need to ensure that teachers have the materials they need without having to spend money from their own pockets. Ido think it gets tricky when it comes to fundraising. Some counties require all fundraising money to be sent to the school board and it gets shared with other school. I do however believe that if the students and families of a particular school works hard to raise money, then that money should stay in their school.

All schools should have the basic, constitutial right to a basic education. Before this decision, schools have been forced to work with dilapidated materials, and unsavoury conditions. This will help give schools the funding they need to be functional.

Yes, I do agree with Leandro v. State decision. I agree with the decision because it allows equity educations for every student. This also ensures that children funding, teaching and resources are available adequately. Equity education provides effective support and fairness for every child.

I support the Leandro v. State decision. I feel that all children deserve equal opportunities to get a well-rounded education. There is no way to pay teachers what they deserved, provide special services and provide proper materials if they didn’t have the funds. It is even harder to provide proper education in overcrowded schools

Yes, I agree with the Leandro v. State decision. I think that it should be the duty of the state to ensure that every student receives an equitable education, no matter the wealth of their family or their community. I also think that the establishment of specific guidelines that comprise what a "sound basic education" is, increases the accountability of the state to ensure that these specific guidelines are met for each and every student.

I do agree with the decision in the Leandro v. State decision. I think that it is very important that all children have the same opportunities to an equal education no matter of their income and I think it is the States job to ensure that this happens. I also liked how they broke down exactly what a sound basic education was so that there was no confusion and it was clear.

i do agree with the decisions made in the Leandro v. State case. in my opinion, it is very important that every student has the right the "opportunity to receive a sound basic education" because education and knowledge are the building blocks to life. no child should be left behind or pushed to the side in the classroom for any reason and that is what the case decisions stand for.

I agree with the ruling of Leandro v. State because it ruled that all students will get adequate and fair education with well trained teachers and staff. Although, I do not think that some states have done a great job of doing that, I still think that the US has a long way to go until every student has access to a great education.

I do agree with the decision of the Leandro v. State case. I believe that deciding to promise students a sound, basic education is wise. I also believe that making NC responsible for upholding these things is good. However, I just don't think that we have upheld the "equal funding" part, the part that may be the most neglected in the past. The decision was great. I just wish there were a little more accountability to uphold these rules.

I agree with the case Leandro v. State because if the children were not able to receive the proper education than other children in the surrounding counties then it was not fair for the children and their families. Just like it stated in the state constitution, North Carolina is required to provide schools with adequate resources to fully educate disadvantaged students and they were not doing so throughout these five low wealth rural counties. Those students have a right for a proper education which this lawsuit demanded it, they needed extra funding because they could not compete with other school districts surrounding them regarding teacher pay, special services or educational materials.

I agree with the decisions made in Leandro v. State. I believe that every individual student should receive a fair and equitable education, regardless of their family and their school districts property value and income of their residence. If these changes weren't done, then the cycle of poverty would continue in the rural towns and others across the state of North Carolina.

I agree with the Leandro vs. State decision because it allows for equity between students and teachers. These counties involved needed the extra money to create a quality education for their students, along with giving a quality paying job to their teachers who couldn't compete with other areas.

I agree with the Leandro v. State decision because it ruled that every child would get an adequate education and that teachers would be well-trained.  It is important that all students have the chance to a fair education no matter what their family income is. This court case showed that equal education is important for both students and teachers and how certain counties and states can improve and make education better country-wide.

I agree with the decision of the Leandro V. State simply because it allows for an equal education all around. It does not matter where the student came from, or what type of social-economic status he or she comes from. It gives every student the right to an equal education, as well as teachers in terms of pay.

Yes, I also agree with the decision of the Leandro vs. State case. To a fair, sound basic education and making the state of North Carolina held responsible for the funding of an equal and fair education for all students. Regardless of parents source of personal income and the county that they reside in. Every student deserves an education and at its best to be free and accessible to all. Along with making pay is great for teachers also. Having a smooth transition to the teacher and student ratio.

I agree with the decision in the Leandro v. State Case. All children are obligated to receive proper education regardless of the financial status of the area or schools.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with the decision of Leandro v. State. I don't think they should have just settled for a "basic education". As a nation we should strive for a better education for our future generations. I understand that an "opportunity to receive a sound basic education." is still beneficial but I believe we can do more.

# data[].attributes.body
I support the decision because if local funds are not available to supplement student learning and the materials that are needed then the state should help supplement those funds.

Yes I agree with the decision that Leandro vs. State. I think all children should have a equal chance of solid education. No matter their financial means or the location of the school.
