The Gilligan education proposal would nearly double state aid to Athens County schools while Trimble and Federal Hocking districts could lose all aid without higher levies. It would raise eligibility to 22.5 mills, require higher local taxes, and shift funding toward a 50 50 state local balance, sparking concern from district leaders about funding stability.
