Ohio Board of Education

The board is set to consider three proposals Monday morning that oppose anti-discrimination policy recently adopted by the Biden administration.

The proposed resolution urges the state legislature to pass bills that prevent transgender students from using girls bathrooms and locker rooms, supports a lawsuit being waged by Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost over federal non-discrimination rules and more.

Ohio's state auditor announced a special audit of the State Teachers Retirement System after months of outrage from retired teachers.

The board's president and another member resigned last month over a vote to take back an anti-racism resolution passed after the George Floyd demonstrations in 2020.

The two members would have to be confirmed by the Senate to replace two appointees who turned in letters of resignation to Gov. Mike DeWine today.

The State Board of Education voted a few weeks ago to rescind an anti-racism resolution approved in the wake of the killing of George Floyd last summer.

Updated: 4:40 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 28, 2021 The Ohio Senate is expected to vote Friday to remove Laura Kohler and Eric Poklar from the Ohio Board of Education. Earlier this month, Kohler, who serves as president of the board, and Poklar both voted against repealing an anti-racism resolution the board had previously passed after George Floyd was killed by a Minnesota Police officer in 2020.
