The Fair School Funding Plan in Ohio. Policy Brief
Ali Smith; Molly Bryden; Bailey Williams; Hannah Halbert
Policy Matters Ohio
The Fair School Funding Plan (FSFP) presented in this policy brief is a bipartisan approach to school funding based on how much districts must spend to educate every child, including those who need different or additional support. The FSFP works because it is based on the actual cost of educating kids, sharing that cost between the state and local communities by considering communities' ability to cover the costs through local taxes. Ohio is four years in to the six-year plan. It is the best chance at achieving constitutional school funding that meets the needs of every student.
