Search for the State’s Authority to Neglect the Authentic Public Education System and then Lavishly Fund Alternatives
Carefully read, or possibly re-read, the Constitutional provisions for education in Ohio. Search for state authority to fund vouchers for private school and privately-operated charters.
Article VI: Education
§2 The General Assembly shall make such provisions, by taxation, or otherwise, as, with the income arising from the school trust fund, will secure a thorough and efficient system of common schools throughout the State; but, no religious or other sect, or sects, shall ever have any exclusive right to, or control of, any part of the school funds of this State.
§3 Provision shall be made by law for the organization, administration and control of the public school system of the state supported by public funds: provided, that each school district embraced wholly or in part within any city shall have the power by referendum vote to determine for itself the number of members and the organization of the district board of education, and provision shall be made by law for the exercise of this power by such school districts
