The 1989 court case that declared the huge disparities between rich and poor school districts were unacceptable and ordered changes in the financing of Texas's public schools was Edgewood v. Kirby. The case was brought by the Edgewood Independent School District against the state of Texas, challenging the constitutionality of the state's school finance system. The Texas Supreme Court ruled unanimously in favor of Edgewood, declaring that the system was unconstitutional and ordering the state to make changes to ensure that all students in Texas had access to a "substantially equal" education.
