Ohio is about to embark on the final phase of the Fair School Funding Plan, the funding formula designed to ensure students get the resources they need regardless of where they live.  But lawmakers at the Statehouse have hinted that funding needed to fulfill the plan is in danger. The Ohio House has just begun to shape the budget that decides how the state allocates our tax dollars – now is when our representatives need to hear from us.
 
Join us for a conversation with Fair School Funding Plan architects John Patterson, Michael Hanlon, and Ryan Pendleton and public finance expert Howard Fleeter about what's needed to protect public education in this moment, and how we can help.
