Department of Education
The department is governed by a 19-member State Board of Education. Eleven of the board members
are elected by the citizens, one from each of 11 districts composed of three contiguous Ohio Senate
districts. Eight board members are appointed by the Governor. Day-to-day administration of the
department is the responsibility of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, who is hired by the State
Board of Education. The department has a full time staff of approximately 600.
GRF appropriations in the school funding line items 200502 (Pupil Transportation) and 200550
(Foundation Funding) increase by 1.4 percent from fiscal year 2011 to fiscal year 2012, and by 1.5% from
fiscal year 2012 to fiscal year 2013.
Agency Priorities
Provide the basic education funding necessary to support student success and achievement.
Offer early learning programs to promote school readiness.
Support student intervention programs that provide students who are performing below
expectations a chance to succeed.
Initiate school improvement programs that improve the school learning environment and engage
parents in the learning process.
Assist districts to effectively and efficiently manage resources and improve financial practices.
Provide focused, high quality professional development for educators.
Implement academic standards that set the expectation for what all students should know and be
able to do.
Align student assessments through development of achievement tests with the academic content
standards to determine whether a student is meeting the expectations embodied in the standards.
Hold educators and students accountable for performance, and provide data that are used to
inform educational decisions.

Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009.
