  8. 1. 3rd Grade Reading • Ohio’s third grade reading guarantee was part of a package of education policy backed by Gov. John Kasich and approved by state lawmakers in spring 2012 as part of Senate Bill 316. • Update: On Tuesday, September 11, the Board did vote to approve the cut scores of 390 for 2012-2013 and 392 for 2013-2014. • These are below Proficient but above “Basic”

  9. Several states including Florida and Texas have had third-grade reading requirements in place for about a decade. Florida has seen the percentage of fourth graders who can read at a fourth grade level rise since putting the requirement in place, as measured by the NAEP. Texas has not

  18. OSBLC Legislation Recommendations • Things that need to change • 1. Require all pay and benefits to be paired with community pay and benefits. Everyone works to prosper in their community. • 2.Allow only one levy request per year, November only. Remove the once per five years for the repeal of a levy, making it once per year, November only. Limit the repeal of a levy to a minimum of 2. • 3. Disallow any Annuity, car allowance, Pick-up, health care coverage beyond the rest of district employees, paid memberships, and other benefits beyond salary for any district employee. 4. Mandate Transparency Projects such as the one on the Springboro Community City School web site.

  19. 5. Mandate that both original and final offers from the unions and the governing body be made public immediately after the first meeting. • 6. Mandate that district pay and benefits changes mirror the community they operate in.  Economic reality borne by all. Makes everyone work toward economic success in the community. • 7. Allow for school districts in Ohio to declare bankruptcy and avoid the futile task of having a state takeover. • 8. Allow districts to permanently replace a striking worker. • 9. After employee retirement, a mandatory 1 year "cooling off" period before re-employment in any capacity, and a life-time prohibition on returning to the position that the employee retired from. 

  20. 10. Remove income cap on school vouchers and increase to be available to all students.  • 11. Convert all defined benefit retirement plans to defined contribution plans with no more than 10% of any employees' pay being directly contributed by the taxpayer. • 12. Return control of the curriculum to the local district. Neither the State nor the Feds have any business dictating what is taught. School • Boards should be responsible and accountable for what is taught -- right now the education establishment can hide behind various "mandates" that have too • much influence over content, quality and quantity.

  21. 13. For core subjects (e.g., math, English, history, chemistry, etc.), high school teachers must have mastery (a minimum of 24 semester hours, or a college degree or major) in the subject they are teaching. • 14.Require districts to reduce sick days to 7, no more than 1 personal day and no more than 70 accumulated sick days, to be paid at 25% per diem at retirement, averaged over all years in public education. • 15.Discontinue Tenure or Continuing Contracts.
