indebtedness under Sections 133.04 and 133.042 cannot exceed one
percent of the total value of all property.
Boards may not submit bond issues which will make the net
indebtedness higher than 4 percent of the assessed valuation without
securing the consent of the tax commissioner and the superintendent of
public instruction acting under the policies adopted by the State Board of
Education. If the voters do not approve the bond issue, the district need
not submit an application to the superintendent of public instruction and
tax commissioner for permission to exceed the 4% of its taxable
valuation if the issue is submitted at the next possible special election
(which is defined in ORC 3501.01).
The net indebtedness of a school district may not exceed 9 percent of its
assessed valuation.
Exceptions are provided for special needs districts (which are
experiencing rapid enrollment growth) and districts whose facilities have
been destroyed or condemned.
The 9% limit may also be exceeded for the school district share of an
Ohio Construction Facilities Commission (OCFC)project. The limit can
be exceeded for: OCFC required locally funded initiatives; the cost of site
acquisition; and other locally funded initiatives so long as they do not
exceed 50% of the basic project cost. The OCFC must notify the
superintendent of public instruction that the district is exceeding this limit.

NON-CERTIFICATED
STAFF (NOT IN CIVIL
SERVICE DISTRICTS),
BOARD TO EMPLOY
For those districts for which Sections 124.01 through 124.99 of the
Revised Code do not apply, the provisions of this section shall apply for
the employment of non-certificated personnel.
While a non-civil service board of education may not terminate a contract
except for certain specific reasons, an exception is provided for
terminating the contracts of transportation staff if the board enters into a
contract for transportation services with an “independent agent.” The
action can either be authorized by a collective bargaining agreement or
be implemented by the board of education if the current collective
bargaining agreement has expired or will expire within sixty days.
However, employees retain some rights regarding their employment and
representation should the board of education authorize this option.

student is enrolled does not offer the extracurricular activity, and (2)
the extracurricular activity is not interscholastic athletics or
interscholastic contests or competition in music, drama, or forensics.
