What mt.gilead schools does

Mount Gilead Exempted Village Schools is a public K-12 school district and political subdivision of the State of Ohio, headquartered at 145 North Cherry Street in Mount Gilead, Ohio. The district operates Park Avenue Elementary School (K-5), Mount Gilead Middle School (6-8), Mount Gilead High School (9-12), and a preschool program, supplemented by a career-technical partnership with Tri-Rivers Career Center. It serves approximately 967 students with a 98.4% four-year graduation rate, employs roughly 150 full-time and part-time staff (one of the largest employers in the community), and is governed by a five-member elected Board of Education under Superintendent Dr. Jeremy Froehlich and Treasurer Tina Gabler.

The district's operating stack is built on standard K-12 administrative and instructional platforms: PowerSchool for student information and gradebooks, ClassLink for single sign-on, Schoology for learning management, INFOhio and MackinVIA for digital library resources, FinalForms for registration, PaySchools Central for meal accounts, and SafeRoutz for transportation management. Communication layers include the district website, social channels, the quarterly Communicator newsletter, and One Call Now alerts. Specialized services include Title I schoolwide reading/math instruction, special education and gifted services, school psychology, Section 504 accommodations, Child Find, military-connection support, food service (operated with The Nutrition Group), and a full-time School Resource Officer via partnership with the Morrow County Sheriff's Office.

Revenue is generated primarily through non-discretionary public funding streams: a 20-mill floor property tax (HB920), an additional 0.75% traditional income tax scheduled to expire at end of 2024, Ohio Unrestricted Grant-in-Aid, federal Title I funding tied to free-and-reduced-lunch eligibility, plus ancillary transactional revenue from student meal purchases (breakfast $1.50, lunch $3.00-$3.25) and athletic event pricing. The projected ending general fund balance is approximately $6.5 million for the current fiscal year, with a ~$300,000 state funding decrease expected from real estate reappraisals.
