Board seeks public's continued help with Ohio budget fight


The Sycamore Board of Education is seeking the public’s help, this time with the Ohio Senate, to save a significant portion of the district's budget from possible phase-out. The Senate is currently considering House Bill 64, Ohio’s biennial budget. Board members encourage the community to let their voices be heard by State lawmakers regarding the proposed TPPR phase out. Visit Sycamore's State Funding page for a sample letter and a list of email addresses of members of the Ohio Senate.  For more information click here for an update on the bill as approved by the House of Representatives and for testimony provided by Treasurer Beth Weber to the Senate Education Finance Committee.
