UPDATED MAY 19 at 1:10 p.m. The board meeting on Monday, May 19 has been cancelled due to lack of a quorum. *** Where does the Liberty Township board meet?

On May 15 the Ada Schools board of education approved the required 5-year financial forecast submitted by treasurer Kim Light. The forecast is required by the State of Ohio in May and November of each year.
As Light noted in her presentation, it has always been challenging to provide a five-year picture when the state legislature provides a two-year budget. With this report, she noted that prospects for 2025-2029 are even murkier given a number of bills in the Ohio legislature that could dramatically reduce public school funding and change how schools can save for anticipated expenses. She expects the November 2025 update to be “more telling.”
