What is the constitutional mandate for public education?

This pops up from time to time, the suggestion that someone should sue the state of Nevada for failing to "live up to its constitutional mandate to provide for education."

Several have floated this idea over the years. A labor advocate in Reno is doing it now.

But what exactly is mandated by the Nevada Constitution?

Article 11, Section 2:  The legislature shall provide for a uniform system of common schools, by which a school shall be established and maintained in each school district at least six months in every year, and any school district which shall allow instruction of a sectarian character therein may be deprived of its proportion of the interest of the public school fund during such neglect or infraction, and the legislature may pass such laws as will tend to secure a general attendance of the children in each school district upon said public schools."

A school in each district. Six months a year. Nonsectarian.

I think the state is complying, unless you want to argue that teaching global warming is of a "sectarian character."
