What is the trickledown effect of our economic conditions...because of our heavy reliance on property tax to fund local schools...and the overstating of property values to set-up "bogus" mortgages...will property values go down (which they have) and what will the net result of tax collections be for school districts?
I think economic conditions will definitely have an effect on school funding and on the ability of districts to pass levies this year. Here's a piece from the Cleveland NBC station about Strickland encouraging voters to support local levies this year - click here for the link.
Strickland has been saying for a while now that he's working on a revised funding structure for schools - how do you think school funding should be restructured?
