Question time at #ohedu event! First question is about fall levies...

by Molly Bloom via twitter 1/31/2013 7:53:38 PM
John Koon, Sup in Lorain County. Says currently on the ballot. How can I count on support of school district while facing budget cuts in immediate future? How can I get message of this funding formula in the next 2 days before community votes on the levy?

#ohedu "This is not a school funding plan, It's an educational improvement plan."

Kasich: You have to go to community all the time. "I get it."

Kasich says he'll release budget on Monday #ohedu

Next question, from a community school person. Wants to know how funding will be attached to special ed students in charter schools.

by Ida Lieszkovszky 1/31/2013 7:56:53 PM
Kasich said he endorsed the Cleveland school levy because of all of the 'good changes' they were making #OHEdu

Kasich says print outs for how new formula impacts individual districts aren't all available yet. #ohedu

by Nolan_Rosenkrans via twitter 1/31/2013 7:57:08 PM
Kasich: "We want to make sure those dollars follow those students into the classroom." Will get allocation based on that population.

by Ida Lieszkovszky 1/31/2013 7:57:22 PM
#ohedu Gov: districts now get money for disabled/poor but it doesn't get to student due to bureaucracy. My Q: where?

by DrJoeClark via twitter 1/31/2013 7:58:20 PM
Free and reduced price lunch will still be basis for measuring number of
students in poverty.

by Ida Lieszkovszky 1/31/2013 7:58:30 PM
#ohedu Gov: we want you to have grant so you can do some things you've always wanted to do.
