Dayton School Levy Trails by 593 Votes With Ballots Still to Count

A Dayton Public Schools levy is trailing by 593 votes as military and provisional ballots are still being counted.

Ohio News Network’s Breana Albizu reports that the levy would generate an additional $14.7 million a year in property tax revenue for school operations.

Superintendent David Lawrence said the district would likely put a different levy on the May ballot if the measure fails. The district has no immediate plans to cut staff or programs.
