West Virginia School Personnel and the WV Charter bill

“In 1871, West Virginia Supreme Court upheld the right of the legislature to unilaterally open districts within school districts,” said News9 Legal Analyst Mike Nogay.

The following year, a constitutional amendment was enacted.

“It said if you want to establish a free school or another school district in our existing school district, you have to put it to a vote of the majority of voters,” said Nogay.
