Indian Lake School Board Members

Comment on decision by the Indian Lake School Board to donate to The Ohio Coalition for Equity & Adequacy
Of School Funding Organization

The IL School board contributed $922.00 to an organization promoting a constitutional amendment to the Ohio Constitution to change the way schools are funded. The organization has been collecting signatures on petitions since 2006. This constitutional proposal would put all control of our schools in the state's hands. Mandates in this proposal would apparently be handed down by an 18 member advisory group committee (appointed by the State Board of Education) . The board of education would police itself on whether the terms of the constitution have been met. The proposed amendment does not provide oversight for the State Board of Education in its recommendations. The amendment would provide a caveat for property owners, albeit only senior citizens and disabled property owners, to lower their property taxes. No local input is included. All proposed implementations of this amendment will be created after the amendment is passed.
Linda Clark

Summary of the amendment
Specifically, the proposal embodies the following concepts:

À Establishes a fundamental right to a high quality education for all public school
pupils in Ohio.

À Creates an Education Accountability Commission, appointed by the Governor,
Speaker of the House and President of the Senate, to monitor and annually report to
the Governor, the General Assembly and the State Board of Education regarding the
extent to which high quality educational opportunities and new state investments
are delivered in a cost efficient and effective manner and their impact on student
performance.

À Directs the State Board of Education to conduct extensive, thorough, validated
studies every two years to determine the components, and the cost of those
components, of a high quality education for all types of students (regular, special,
gifted, poverty, etc.) at all grades and specifies certain subjects (research, best
practices, incentives, location, professional development, etc.) to be considered by
the Board during that process. Directs State Board to appoint diverse 18-member
advisory commission to assist.

À Specifies that the Board's recommendations shall constitute a "thorough and
efficient system" and that sufficient funds to underwrite these costs shall be
deposited by the State Treasurer into the School Trust Fund to be distributed to
districts. Authorizes the General Assembly to override the State Board's
recommendation with a three-fifths vote of both Houses, as long as the General
Assembly's plan provides essentially the same components, programs and services.

À Establishes the first year of implementation to be the third fiscal year (2011)
following adoption. During two intervening years (2009 and 2010), base cost
funding is to increase by 5% each year, plus appropriate inflationary increases.
