LOVELAND, OH (April 14-2025) – Loveland City School District is launching a call for action by hosting a State Budget Town Hall. Governor Mike DeWine’s budget proposal would cut funding for Loveland City Schools, and the version passed by the Ohio House would continue to shift the burden of supporting public school districts onto local taxpayers.
