Alexander, Alexander, and Alexander's American Public School Law, 10th

Alexander et al.’s American Public School Law has for 50 years set the standard for books in the field of education law. This new 2026, Tenth Edition, provides for a combined textbook/casebook approach for teaching the law of K-12 education and public school systems in the United States. Included in this volume are numerous recent judicial precedents rendered by the U.S. Supreme Court and various state and federal courts derived from actual cases and controversies involving America’s schools. The book is designed to facilitate a “case” or “discussion” teaching methodology that enables the teacher to depart from merely explaining the law and to engage the students in dialogue and discussion about the historical, political, and social context surrounding the law. Written in an engaging style, American Public School Law, Tenth Edition, clearly explains all complex points of law for lawyers and non-lawyers, alike, with a focus on the unique needs of teachers, school superintendents and administrators, and other professional school leaders.
