Our current extremely low state standards in Ohio state that for every 1,000 elementary students, schools must have in place five of the following eight specialists: art, music, counselor, school nurse, librarian/media specialist, visiting teacher, social worker, or physical education.
Now Ohio wants to end even these low standards.
Eliminating these guidelines will likely lead to even more programs being eliminated from Ohio schools.
4 state school board members walked out this morning when discussion was delayed.
