127 Ohio St. 3d 469, 2010-Ohio-5710 (Ohio 2010) · Supreme Court of Ohio · November 30, 2010 · No. 2009-1926

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court held that an Ohio Department of Education determination that an entity is not education-oriented, and therefore ineligible to sponsor community schools, is appealable under R.C. 119.12. The court reversed the dismissal of Brookwood Presbyterian Church’s administrative appeal and remanded the case to the trial court.

Holdings

  1. A determination under R.C. 3314.015(B)(3) that an entity is not education-oriented is a decision disapproving the entity for sponsorship of a community school and may be appealed under R.C. 119.12 pursuant to R.C. 3314.015(D).

Questions Presented

  1. Whether the Ohio Department of Education's determination under R.C. 3314.015(B)(3) that an entity is not education-oriented is appealable under R.C. 119.12.
  2. Whether the word "final" in R.C. 3314.015(B)(3) eliminates the appeal right granted by R.C. 3314.015(D).
