Key legal question
Whether the limited school-transport arrangement violated Art. 19 BV and the prohibition of arbitrariness
Extracted holding
The challenged solution stayed within the cantons' margin of appreciation and did not violate Art. 19 BV or the arbitrariness ban.
Extracted reasoning
A school route is assessed by length, elevation, danger, condition, and age of the children. For 13- to 16-year-old pupils, the 8 km bicycle route with a 100 m elevation difference was not unreasonable in summer; the cantonal court could restrict compulsory transport to the winter half-year and require a transport or lunch solution at midday all year.
