Pease proposes reform for financing of schools
Ohio State Rep. Donald Pease introduces a plan to reshape school funding amid anticipation of a Supreme Court ruling on property tax reliance. The bill would merge or realign districts with over 30 000 valuation per pupil, raise the basic guarantee to 900 per pupil, and allow districts to spend up to 450 above the guarantee. About 45 districts would be affected, with an estimated 100 million a year in new state revenue over four years.
