Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This was an action to enjoin the state superintendent of public instruction from carrying out duties under the act known as the School Unification Law, enacted by the 1963 regular session of the legislature. The 148 plaintiffs are school districts of various types located in many counties of the state. The plaintiffs challenged the constitutionality of Chapter 393 of the 1963 Laws of Kansas which is now K.S.A. 72-6734 et seq. The district court held this act to be constitutional and valid. The plaintiffs appealed to this court, and because the case involves a pressing public question, the court announced its decision at an early date so that the parties and the legislature were advised. (Tecumseh School District v. Throckmorton, 194 Kan. 519, 403 P.2d 102.) The statute questioned by appellants provides for reorganization of the school districts of the state. At the time of enactment, there were some 1843 public school districts of many different types but chiefly common school districts offering grades 1 to 8, high school districts offering grades 9 to 12, and city school districts offering grades 1 to 12. Each high school district overlays all or part of one or several common school districts. The act would cause all of the school territory of the state to be reorganized into unified school districts offering grades 1 to 12 and disorganizing the old districts.
