Public education in Ohio is managed by the Ohio Department of Education, which oversees K-12 schools across the state. The system includes various types of schools, such as traditional public schools, charter schools, and community schools. Funding primarily comes from local property taxes, state funding, and federal grants, aiming to provide equitable education opportunities for all students. In Ohio, students typically attend school from kindergarten through 12th grade, culminating in the Ohio Graduation Test or other assessments. The curriculum is designed to meet state standards, ensuring that students receive a well-rounded education in subjects like math, science, and the arts.
