Nobody has brought up the possibility that all this corona virus stuff could lead to more students staying at home and less students in school. This would lead to less "need" for the schools. I think this could be huge.
We also have to consider geography. The smallest high school and school district in Ohio is Kelleys Island. That is one of those islands in Lake Erie. That can not realistically be consolidated with anything.
I do agree that the number of high schools in Ohio is absolutely absurd though. I also don't think kids should be on the bus for more than 45 minutes one way. West Virginia went to a county plan years ago. I don't know why more states haven't done this. Lots of people don't even know what school district in which they live.
