CINCINNATI (WKRC) — Cincinnati Public Schools could be at risk of losing more than $150 million in state funding if proposed legislation becomes law.
Ohio House Bill 671 would require the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce to withhold state foundation funding from any school district participating in legal action against the state’s school voucher program. The money would be placed into escrow and released if a district withdraws from the lawsuit.
Cincinnati Public Schools is among fewer than 15 Ohio school districts that did not return a federal letter regarding civil rights laws and DEI by the deadline. (WKRC, file)…
