Voinovich plan sparks debate on Ohio school funding
Gov George Voinovich proposes a tax equity reform shifting aid among Ohio districts. Critics say nine of Lorain County’s 15 districts face reduced state support while wealthy Avon Lake and Avon would gain a larger share. The plan touches only about 1 percent of total state education spending and ignores deeper funding inequities highlighted by a court ruling that Ohio’s system is unconstitutional.
