Ohio Legislature Keeps Advancing School Reforms that Don’t Work but Fails to Fund the Public Schools

I wish there was a dislike button for articles like this. We should be protecting public schools not continually setting them up for failure - writing laws that don’t apply to all the other “schools” also taking state money is unjust - and the funding is unconstitutional.
COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Ohio General Assembly finalized a bill on Wednesday that would require more stringent remediation and math education, homeschooled students access to career-technical education and other school mandates.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
The legacy of this @POTUS won't be the monuments he builds to himself but the destruction of faith in public institutions for his own power and profit.
He wants to rewrite or erase history because he knows it won't be kind to him.
That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President.
Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.
Everyone deserves the freedom to be who they are and love who they love. Across the Buckeye State, no matter who you are, I’m in this fight for you.
Happy Pride, Ohio!
Our public schools in Ohio are struggling — all while taxpayers send billions of dollars into an unaccountable voucher system.
This isn’t a solution that benefits Ohio students. That’s why our agenda prioritizes fully funding public schools so that every child has the chance to succeed.
Ohioans deserve a transparent government and accountability on how their tax dollars are spent. This is common sense.
The current school voucher system was deemed unconstitutional, requires no accountability, and takes billions of dollars out of our public schools. As governor, I will fight for a school funding plan that gives our students the best chance at success.

Statehouse Republicans have been defunding them via death by a thousand cuts while sending over $1 BILLION Dollars to unaccountable charter and private schools.
It’s time for Ohio Republicans to stop neglecting the Oath they swore to the Ohio Constitution. #FundPublicSchools
