Reynoldsburg City Schools

Operating funds are used to pay for the day-to-day expenses of a school district.  Those expenses include salaries, benefits, utilities, textbooks, etc.  They DO NOT include construction, renovations and building maintenance, which are funded by separate sources like voter-approved bond sales. 

Reynoldsburg City Schools receives about half of its operating revenues from the state of Ohio.  The district depends on local property taxes for the bulk its remaining revenues.  A local school income tax, personal property taxes and federal funding make up the rest.

A chart showing what each of these sources contribute to the district's day-to-day operating funds is available here.

Reynoldsburg's local property millage is the second lowest in Franklin County (see chart here).  Voters have supported the school district by funding a series of bond issues to improve schools as part of the 2001 Master Facilities Plan.  There has not been an increase in local operating millage in 13 years.
