Over the next two months, local school districts will lose more than $300 million dollars — the result of state budget cuts due to the coronavirus pandemic. Those cuts amount to nearly 4% of original base funding for school districts, which is separate from money districts receive from local property taxes. Jennifer Hogue, OSBA’s director of legislative services; Kevin Miller, director of governmental relations for the Buckeye Association of School Administrators; and Barb Shaner, advocacy specialist for the Ohio Association of School Business Officials, join the Leading the Way podcast to discuss the cuts' impact on schools and what federal funds districts may receive through the CARES Act.
