Rhodes Plan for Ohio Education Keeps Funds, Local Tax Ties
Gov James A Rhodes unveils a continuation plan for primary and secondary schooling aimed at increasing state funds to ease local tax pressure. The plan foresees 1.1 billion dollars in new state money over four years, with no new state taxes, plus proposals like rifle grants for debt-laden districts, rewards for parent teacher groups, a discipline task force, and a summer program for lagging students. A key issue remains the distribution formula for new funds, which will be decided after the election.
