1Opinion of the Court
Equity will not ordinarily interfere in local controversies arising under the laws of the State relating to public schools, but will leave the determination of such controversies to the county boards of education which have been clothed with this power by the legislature.(a) The petition did not show that, in dealing with the matters complained of, the Board of Education of Gwinnett County abused its discretion and, accordingly, was not good against general demurrer.
