If you care about fair funding for public schools, now is the time to act. Here’s how you can help: 📢 Contact your state legislators and tell them: ➡️ Update both sides of the Fair School Funding formula. ➡️ Hold private schools accountable if they receive public funding. ➡️ Stop forcing local taxpayers to fill the gap. 💡 Ask questions like: Why aren’t private schools audited like public schools? Why do public schools have to follow strict financial rules while private schools do not? Why is our funding being cut while private school vouchers increase? 🎓 Public schools educate 90% of Ohio’s kids. They deserve fair and predictable funding. Thank you for your continued support of Wapakoneta City Schools! #FundOurSchools #SupportPublicEducation

One of the biggest frustrations in this budget is the increased funding for private schools—without the same level of accountability as public schools. 📌 Public schools are audited annually by the State Auditor’s Office. Private schools? No state audits. 📌 Public schools must comply with strict financial and academic requirements—do private schools have to meet the same standards? 📌 Public schools must educate EVERY student. Private schools can pick and choose. If the state wants to fund private education, they must hold private schools to the same standards as public schools. If you agree, reach out to your legislators and ask them why public schools are being held to a higher standard while getting less funding. #AccountabilityMatters #PublicFundsPublicSchools

We’ve seen firsthand how unpredictable school funding can be in the past. Years ago, our district saved money instead of spending it all, knowing that funding could change. Now, with an $800,000 funding cut coming, that foresight is helping—but we still face tough decisions ahead. Imagine if we didn’t have that cushion. We’d be scrambling to figure out how to pay our staff and maintain programs. The bottom line: This funding cut is significant. It’s not sustainable, and it’s not fair to our students. Stay tuned for what we can do to stand up for public schools. #WapakonetaSchools #FairFunding

In 2022, Ohio implemented the Fair School Funding Plan, designed to accurately determine the cost of educating a child and how much a community can afford to pay. But here’s the problem: Only half of the formula is being updated. 📌 The state is recalculating property values & income (which makes Wapakoneta look "wealthier"), but they are NOT updating the cost of educating a student. What does this mean? 🔻 Wapakoneta City Schools' state funding will drop by $842,311 in FY 26 and $835,301 in FY 27. 🔻 Our state share of funding will drop from 53.54% in FY 2022 to just 38.1% in FY 2027. Even though your income may not have increased, the state assumes our community can cover the gap. That’s not how fair funding should work. This imbalance is putting a strain on public schools. We must demand that legislators update both sides of the formula. #SupportPublicSchools #FairFunding
