Ohio HB671 mandates withholding of state foundation funding for school districts challenging funding calculations.

Ohio HB671 requires the Department of Education and Workforce to withhold state foundation funding from school districts involved in legal actions challenging the calculation or distribution of such funding. The withheld funds are placed in a state foundation funding escrow fund, administered by the department. The department can only release these funds if the legal action is terminated or the district withdraws from it. The bill also establishes accounts for these withheld funds and appropriates them for specific purposes.
