The New York Court of Appeals is set to hear arguments next week on whether charter schools in New York City can demand public funding for universal prekindergarten without following a set of standards imposed by the city for such a program.

That was a reversal from a decision by Albany Supreme Court Justice Raymond Elliott, who previously upheld the rules in 2016.
