More than 120 Ohio public school districts are projecting negative cash balances by 2029 – the worst rate since the Great Recession.

According to data compiled by Ohio State University professor Vlad Kogan, 124 of the 611 public school districts in the state, around 20%, are projecting negative cash balances by fiscal year 2029, the highest rate of negative cash balance projections since 2012.

The data comes as Cincinnati Public Schools is in the throes of finalizing a budget by the end of June, attempting to chip away at a $58.6 million deficit by proposing dozens of cuts to counselors, social workers and programming. As of June 8, the school board has yet to vote on a budget ahead of the June 30 deadline, when the fiscal year officially ends.

Districts around the state – large urban districts to the smallest rural districts – are facing the same somber cuts.
