What is this bond?

This surety bond is a financial guarantee used by the state to oversee nonprofit public schools and community schools. It guarantees that the school's fiscal officer or governing board properly manages public funds and accounts for all state resources. If public funds are misappropriated, the bond provides a mechanism for the state to recover those financial losses.

Who needs it?

Fiscal officers, designated financial operators, or governing authorities of nonprofit public schools in Ohio typically need this bond. The specific personnel required to carry the bond can vary based on the school's structural organization. Applicants should verify their exact bonding requirements with the Ohio State Auditor's Office.

Why is it required?

The Ohio State Auditor's Office generally requires this bond to protect taxpayer dollars allocated for public education. It serves as a strict safeguard against fraud, embezzlement, or negligent financial mismanagement by school officials. By mandating this bond, the obligee ensures financial recourse is available if the school fails to fulfill its fiduciary duties.
