Ohio's New Educators

10/16/2026

Ohio’s public schools serve nearly 90 percent of students in our state. Funding for public schools comes out of the same line item in the state budget as private school vouchers. Every dollar spent on vouchers is a dollar less than that’s available for public schools.

Press release — Today, leaders from the All in For Ohio Kids coalition responded to the unanimous Court of Appeals decision affirming Ohio’s voucher scheme is unconstitutional. Ohio Organizing Collaborative Co-Executive Director Molly Shack, Policy Matters Ohio Executive Director Hannah Halbert, Ohio Federation of Teachers President Melissa Cropper, and Ohio Education Association President Jeff Wensing released the following joint statement:

“Ohio’s universal voucher scheme diverts more than $1 billion per year to unaccountable private schools while legislators fail to fully and fairly fund our public schools, as they are legally required to do. The Court of Appeals correctly found this to be unconstitutional. Now it’s up to legislators and state officials to address this by returning to the Fair School Funding Plan, the bipartisan funding formula that is based on the actual costs of educating Ohio students."
