In the unlikely event a check you write to the school is returned for nonsufficient funds (NSF), the school will contact you for recovery of the funds. You may be charged additional fees if the school is charged a fee from the bank. If more than one check is returned, the school reserves the right to no longer accept checks from you and all payments must be made by cash or money order. The school policy is below.

6151 - INSUFFICIENT FUNDS CHECKS

When the District receives a check which is not honored upon presentation to the respective bank or other depository institution, the Treasurer/CFO is authorized to take appropriate action. If payment is not received within thirty (30) days, the payment schedule is not adhered to, or the monies do not appear to be collectable, the Board of Education authorizes the Treasurer to remove the fee or charge from the District's Accounts Receivable and to take appropriate action against the payer. The payer may be charged any cost charged by the District's banking institution for a returned check.

Did you know that if you own the home you reside in, you are entitled to a 2.5% rollback on your property taxes? Look at your real estate tax bill that you received from the county treasurer. If you do not have a 2.5% Rollback listed under your 10% Rollback, you are not getting a savings you are entitled to. To receive the 2.5% rollback, call the county auditor’s office at 419-592-1956 and ask them to mail you the application for the 2.5% rollback. You can also get this application from the county auditor’s website which is listed to the right under Links of Interest.

The new expanded homestead exemption provides additional property tax relief to qualified senior citizens and permanently and totally disabled Ohioans.

The new exemption offers eligible homeowners, regardless of income, the opportunity to shield up to $25,000 of the market value of their homestead (a dwelling and up to one acre of land) from property taxation. For example, if a home is valued at $100,000, the property tax will generally be billed as if the home were valued at $75,000.

Forms are available at the local auditor’s office or by contacting the Ohio Department of Taxation at 800-282-1780. The application is also available on both of their websites which are listed to the lower right on this page under Links of Interest.

Seniors are urged to take advantage of this tax break.
