What stands out about how Williamsburg is run
Read from the village’s budget and official records.
Williamsburg Local School District
Williamsburg’s K–12 school district, shared with Williamsburg Township, Jackson Township. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $13,968 per pupil, $8,737 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Ohio districts overall: 53% local, 35% state, 12% federal.
