Extractions: Board of Regents' Goals Higher Education Supports Economic Development Rather, governing authority rests with the Boards of Trustees of individual colleges and universities, which have full authority and responsibility for the management, planning, and development of their respective institutions. The Regents have embraced five goals aimed at assisting Ohioans in securing their future prosperity in the 21st century: increase seamless access to affordable, quality higher education for all Ohioans; identify and encourage academic programs of distinction and excellence; eliminate unnecessary duplication in programs, services and facilities; focus and expand research to create economic opportunities and assure the success of the Third Frontier program and other key initiatives. Policy I Expanding Access The Ohio College Access Network (OCAN) was founded in 1999 by KnowledgeWorks Foundation, in collaboration with the Ohio Board of Regents and Ohio Department of Education. With these partners and the Ohio Business Roundtable, OCAN works to establish college access programs across Ohio. OCAN is the first statewide coordinating body for college access programs in the nation. The organization is focused on helping Ohio residents pursue postsecondary education by building and supporting local college access programs throughout the state.
OHIO VOUCHER PLAN OVERTURNING ohio SCHOOL VOUCHER PLAN a position that it has taken repeatedly that government subsidies to parochial schools are unconstitutional. http://www.ajcongress.org/pages/RELS1997/MAY97REL/may_002.htm
Extractions: OVERTURNING OHIO SCHOOL VOUCHER PLAN (May 2, 1997) The American Jewish Congress today expressed satisfaction with the ruling of an Ohio appeals court reversing a lower court decision which had permitted government-funded vouchers to pay the tuition of former Cleveland public school students sent to private schools, most of them religious institutions. AJCongress had filed an amicus brief on behalf of itself, the Anti-Defamation League and the National Jewish Community Relations Advisory Council with the Tenth District Court of Appeals of Franklin County (Columbus) Ohio, in the case of Doris Simmons-Harris, et. al and Sue Gatton, et al., v. John M. Goff, Ohio Superintendent of Public Instruction, et. al . In the brief, AJCongress reiterated a position that it has taken repeatedly: that government subsidies to parochial schools are unconstitutional. "Although the narrow issue before the appellate court was whether a particular school voucher scheme is constitutional, the larger issue was whether a state may walk away from a failed public school system and turn to religious schools to provide the children with a quality education," said AJCongress Executive Director Phil Baum. "Happily, given the increased attention paid to voucher schemes, the court said no," declared Baum. "What was at stake in this case was nothing less than the foundation principle of government's responsibility for delivering education," commented Baum. "Public consensus and constitutional law have until now insisted that government's responsibility for education be discharged in common, government-operated non- sectarian schools. With this decision, Ohio has failed in its attempt to turn that tradition on its head, and with it its attempt to undercut our national commitment to public education. Fortunately, the Court has rebuffed this effort on both state and federal constitutional grounds."

Extractions: Transform Our Schools Milton Friedman Its time to bring elementary and secondary education out of the nineteenth century and into the twenty-first. Milton Friedman is a senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in economic sciences in 1976. T he recent Supreme Court decision upholding Clevelands voucher program has cleared the way for a major expansion of parental school choice. Opponents of choice can no longer use the First Amendments religious Establishment Clause to attack voucher programs, now that the Supreme Court has declared the Cleveland program constitutionally acceptable even though most voucher recipients went to parochial schools. Most schools that accept vouchers are religious for a simple reason and one that is easily corrected. That reason is the low value of the voucher. It is not easy, perhaps not possible, to provide a satisfactory education for $2,500 per student. Most private schools spend more than that. But parochial schools are able to accept that low voucher amount because they are subsidized by their churches. Illustrations by Taylor Jones for the Hoover Digest When the GI Bill was enacted, doubts were expressed that the colleges could expand rapidly enough to handle the flood of new students. Yet the number of students enrolled in colleges nearly doubled in the two years after the end of the war. The supply expanded to meet the surge in demand.

Extractions: and millions of dollars away from school districts By Glenn Cook Having weathered many of education's passing fads, Sylvester Small was not surprised by the choice movement. Small, a second-year superintendent who has spent his entire 31-year education career in Akron, Ohio, estimates that his district now loses $8 million to $9 million a year to charter schools, home schools, and private and parochial schools. "When it comes to choice," he said matter of factly, "we've got it all in Ohio." But even Small was caught off guard by the latest twist in the choice movement: taking charter schools into cyber space. And he's not the only one. School districts in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and 23 other states are trying to catch up to a trend that has the potential to lure thousands of students and millions of dollars away from them. A rash of unexpected bills from cyber charters to unsuspecting school districts has led to a flurry of lawsuits and new legislation in Pennsylvania. Ohio's lawmakers are considering a bill that would put a moratorium on all charters for two years. Meanwhile, enrollment is growing so quickly that Small's district has already lost more than $320,000 to the Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow (eCOT), a cyber charter that is promising to cap the number of students this fall at 3,500.

Extractions: Vouchers: Another Name for Welfare by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. By now, Ive received a dozen or so press releases from editorialists and institutions proclaiming the Supreme Court decision "Zelman, Superintendent of Public Instruction of Ohio, et al. v. Simmons-Harris et al." (argued Feb. 20, 2002-June 27, 2002) as the greatest step toward liberty in our time. Oh sure. From reading these breathless tracts, youd think that the very same Supreme Court that has blessed and even dictated 50 years of catastrophic political centralization in American public education has suddenly been converted to libertarianism, and is fighting for the property rights of parents, and their right to educate their children in freedom. Well, no surprise, that would be a wrong conclusion. What the court approved was an aspect of Ohios Pilot Project Scholarship Program that allows kids receiving vouchers for elementary education to use them at schools with a religious affiliation and/or ownership. The majority of the Court said that because the parents, and not the government, decide how and where the voucher is spent, this is not a violation of the first amendment separation of church and state. Well, of course it is not a violation of the first amendment! In the original Constitution, the Bill of Rights restricted only the activities of the central government. It was supposed to prevent it from compromising the federal nature of the American system, which left the states free to govern themselves.

Jewish Law - Legal Briefs ("Simmons-Harris V. Goff") The Mueller Court held that where aid to parochial schools is available only The relationship between the State of ohio and the sectarian schools http://www.jlaw.com/Briefs/friend4.html
Extractions: SUPREME COURT OF OHIO (1997) The parental right to educate one's child in the manner one desires does not stand alone. Rather, the State has a corresponding right and responsibility to regulate all schools in the manner necessary to protect the public good. See Pierce at 534; Meyer at 401. It was in fulfillment of this responsibility that the Ohio legislature enacted R.C. 3313.974-3313.979, the Pilot Program, which was established in response to a severe educational and fiscal crisis in the Cleveland City School District. In response to this problem, the Pilot Program was established as one uniform initiative with two main elements: (1) a scholarship program to enable students to attend "alternative" schools; and (2) a tutorial program to provide students with financial aid for tutorial assistance within the public school system. In order to address the challenges facing the school district, the State of Ohio attacked the system from two directions: it opened up the alternative school system to those who were previously unable to afford it, and made the tutorial opportunities within the public school system available to those for whom it had previously been financially unfeasible. The objective of the Pilot Program was not and is not the establishment or support of any sectarian institution; any indirect benefit derived by sectarian schools through the program is indirect and constitutionally permissible.
