This district held $11,461,330 at 30 June FY2025, $1,830,505 less than in FY2020. Cash held at 30 June, general fund. FY2021–FY2024 are the federal pandemic relief years: that money was booked in the general fund by some districts and separately by others, so a balance rising across them is not evidence about this district's own position.

These are audited actuals from this district's own five-year forecast filing — the only figures on this page that record money changing hands rather than a formula's output. State aid here is unrestricted grants-in-aid as the treasurer books it, which is not the same construction as the FY2027 calculator's total state support above; the two are not comparable line for line. Local tax is property plus income tax actually collected. General fund only, so capital, food service, and most federal programs are outside it.

The money that reaches this district outside the formula Contents
This district received $96,851 from the casino fund in FY2024, 1.01% of the state aid it booked that year. Every other figure on this page is state aid computed by a formula or booked by the treasurer as grants-in-aid. This is neither. It is a share of the gross casino revenue county student fund, which moves from the Tax Commissioner through county funds to districts and never becomes an appropriation to the department — so nothing above this card counts it.

FY2021 is the closure. Ohio's casinos were shut by order from mid-March 2020, and because this fund is paid on the tax actually collected rather than on an appropriation, the drop arrives whole: $61,550 against $83,639 the year before, −26.4%. Nothing cushioned it and nothing was made up afterwards — which is the difference between money the legislature sets and money a tax yields.

There is no per-pupil figure here, and one should not be computed from this page. The fund is apportioned on the count R.C. 5753.11 defines — county-resident pupils, counting community, STEM and joint vocational enrollment, with a pupil enrolled in both a JVSD and a district counted in both — which is a fifth Ohio pupil count and is deliberately not a partition of the state's students. Dividing this by the enrolled ADM above would put a number beside four other per-pupil figures that looks like a fifth of the same kind and is not one.
The district decides how to spend it. The Ohio Constitution restricts these distributions to the support of primary and secondary education and imposes no other condition, which makes this the least restricted money on the page — most restricted money on this site is restricted to a program, and this is restricted only to a purpose broad enough to cover nearly any school expenditure. The series runs FY2016 to FY2024 because the Department of Taxation's own casino page carries no distribution after January 2024, and the ones before FY2016 were published as PDFs.

Administration is 8.3% of it — $414 per pupil general and $1,028 school. That is usually the first figure anyone looks for and it is usually small; the arithmetic does not support a story about administrative bloat, and it equally does not establish that the composition is right. It is a share, not a verdict.
These are the report card's FY2025 figures, divided by unweighted ADM — a headcount of 1,372 pupils, not the need-weighted count the department's headline per-pupil figure uses. The choice of denominator is not cosmetic: the same numerator over a need-weighted count behaves differently against every outcome measure. They are also not the audited actuals above, which are general fund totals from this district's own five-year forecast filing on a different basis — the two are not summable and neither is a check on the other.
What these numbers are not Contents
They are not comparable line for line with the FY2027 calculator on the dashboard. State aid here is unrestricted grants-in-aid as the treasurer books it; the calculator's total state support is a different construction, in a different year, on a different basis. Reading one as a check on the other is the mistake this page is kept separate to prevent.
General fund only. Capital, food service, and most federal programs sit in other funds, so the spending here is not the district's total budget.
