No, church schools are private and taxpayer money can't be given to support a private school. To get around this many states have tried to pass school law allowing vouchers. Originally vouchers came about to address the passage of the Brown v Topeka Schools in the Supreme Court. The ruling made discrimination in education illegal and all white schools had to intergrate. Vouchers were to be given so white only schools could continue without the enrollment of African American children. This would include church schools to use the voucher issued by the state with taxpayer money. The idea of vouchers keeps coming up to use taxpayer money to pay to private church schools so considering the current political system it is possible that in the near future vouchers will be used and the fine line between private and public schools will be blurred, so it is conceivable that taxpayer dollars will be used for private religious schools education.
