Events | November 18th, 2008

Over the course of the next two months our Governor will be taking the conversation about how to improve Ohio’s schools to towns around the state, directly soliciting feedback from educators and community members about his vision for reforming the state’s public education system. And you have the opportunity to watch this dialogue in action.

During November and December, Gov. Ted Strickland (D) plans to host six forums around the state to discuss school funding with teachers, students, parents, and members of the business community.  These forums will be available for viewing on local PBS affiliates, as well as online and viewing parties will be organized around the state.

Throughout the summer Gov. Strickland held meetings around the state to discuss principles of education reform.  Now he wants to talk about how to fund that kind of reform.  Be sure to tune in to find out what fellow Ohio residents are saying about the best way to improve our schools and serve our children.
