The Supreme Cour4 in its refusal to apply both the harsh level of strict scrutiny and the often inadequate lower level of a rational basis standard, sought a mid-level analysis. Thus, the intermediate level of review enabled the Court to hold the Texas statute which denied undocumented alien children a free public education constitutionally infirm.

Awarding a remedy of back pay was, however, improper as speculative. The author examines the Supreme Court's analysis of the decision and explores its future impact.
