SCHOOL LAW

RATE OF TUITION. The rate of tuition to be charged foreign pupils, must be fixed by a resolution of the board, which must be duly entered in the record of the district. Charges for tuition can not be collected in the absence of any resolution fixing the rate (35 Mich., 483).

RENTERS OF FARMS. Where a party resides in one district and rents a farm in another, he is not entitled to send his children to the district school in which he rents the farm (Att’y Gen’l, Sept. 16, 1893).

INDIGENT CHILDREN. Children in alms houses at county expense must be admitted to the schools of the district, the county paying the tuition (Act 131, 1895).

LIMITATIONS OF AUTHORITY. Under the various provisions of the school law, the authority of a district to vote a tax upon its inhabitants is carefully limited; and there is no law authorizing a district to assess a tax to educate its children outside of the district (Att’y Gen’l, Oct. 16, 1891).
