State calls for higher school funding in Ohio
Ohio Education Association president Dwight L. Arnold criticized the state for funding schools at 28 percent of costs, well below the national 45 percent average. He urged new or increased taxes this session to raise Ohio’s share toward the national level, noting a subsidy plan would lift state support from 262 million to 314 to 320 million or more. He cited district tax trends, with many levies at 15 mills or higher, Olmstead Falls leading in total tax rate, and Warren District posting the lowest school tax.
