Summary
Student Freedom of Choice Act - Amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit any Federal department, agency, or employee from using the withholding of Federal funds to any public school: (1) on account of the racial composition of the student body where the school board maintains a freedom of choice system; or (2) to coerce or induce the school board to transport students, close any school, or transfer faculty for the purpose of altering the racial composition of the student body or faculty. Prohibits any Federal court from requiring school boards to make any change in the racial composition of the student body or faculty for such purposes.
