Track record — Public Education Quality

Public Education Quality · 1 support

  • Submitted written testimony against Senate Bill 127, a proposal to close or force changes at Ohio public schools that score near the bottom for three years in a row. She told the Senate Education Committee on May 12, 2026 that the bill judges schools by fixed percentages. The cutoff is the bottom 5 percent on the state performance index and the bottom 10 percent on student growth. She argued that a fixed percentage guarantees a bottom tier forever, so buildings would close every year even if every school met state standards. She pointed to Ohio's existing school improvement process, noting schools needing comprehensive support fell from 127 in 2018 to 32 in 2022, and urged lawmakers to strengthen that system instead. She serves on the New Philadelphia City Schools Board of Education but testified as a parent and resident.
