Issue Position: Strengthening Our Schools

Issue Position

Our children are the workforce of tomorrow. Therefore, the quality of their training is paramount to the economic vitality of our state. That's why, under Rob McColley's leadership, Ohio has directed more state funding into K-12 education than at any time in our state's history. Total state aid investments since 2013 have resulted in overall state per pupil increases of 30.5%. The continuation of "Guarantee Funds" ensures that no district will receive less in formula state aid than it did in the 2017 fiscal year, unless the district has lost more than five percent of its students over the past two years and would otherwise be funded for students that no longer exist.
