Ohio's elected state school board is not selected to serve at the pleasure of the governor's political party, retired teacher Jeanne Melvin writes.
is the best way for Ohioans to address accountability and oversight of our government leaders to make sure they promote sound education policies that follow the will of the people and not the interests of education profiteers.Decisions made by members of the State Board of Education are crucial to every Ohioan.
Our elected state school board members serve the will of their constituents. They are not selected to serve at the pleasure of the governor's political party, which is no friend to public education.The State Board of Education is supposed to be a non-partisan organization, but the decisions currently made by the state board would be guided by partisan political power over K-12 education.
In 1953, Ohio voters passed a constitutional amendment that established an all-elected state board of education and a superintendent of public instruction to be appointed by that board, which indicated an intention to separate the Department of Education from the governor’s office.
