Ohio Board delays action on needy school building funds
Ohio State Board of Education postpones policy decisions on how needy districts may apply for state construction money. It approves rules for state funds to buy buses and hears that the $367 million foundation appropriation may be inadequate, with $373 million seen as more realistic. Wheelersburg’s extra $28,500 request is denied, though $28,500 may be shifted from fixed equipment funds. Spring 1958 is forecast for bond money to reach districts, and a teacher training report is moved to August.
