OH E School Trouble

The Ohio Supreme Court will hear arguments in February over the state’s efforts to recoup $60 million from one of the nation’s largest online charter schools. The Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow is challenging how officials tallied student logins to determine that the virtual school was overpaid for the 2016 school year. The state says that ECOT didn’t sufficiently document student participation to justify its funding and could owe millions more from this past school year. The e-school has said it could be forced to close in the coming months, if the court doesn’t intervene.
