Thousands of people marched downtown Cleveland Saturday chanting "No kings, no crowns, he can't tear our country down." It was just one part of a national protest movement in response to a military parade U.S. President Donald Trump held in Washington D.C. on the same day. Protest organizers estimated at least 5,000 people attended a rally at Willard Park and subsequent march through Cleveland.

Cleveland Metropolitan School District's Board of Education voted this week to grant CMSD CEO Warren Morgan a 5% raise, even as the district faces the need to cut its budget significantly. CMSD Board Chair Sara Elaqad in a statement Friday said Morgan has earned the raise, after forgoing a raise last year, calling him “one of the hardest working leaders in Cleveland.” It will make his base salary $299,250, an increase of $14,250.

While legislators have said most Ohio school districts will receive more funding under the Senate’s proposed biennial budget, the majority of Ohio’s eight biggest urban school districts stand to lose money. The Senate version of the state budget bill was released in early June. The Senate and House will need to reconcile their different versions – each feature different school funding models – before sending the bill to be signed by the governor by the end of the month.

Some Kent State University students and alumni are lamenting the loss of programs that they say supported them after the university announced this week it will close the Multicultural, Women’s and LGBTQ+ centers in response to a new state law. The university said Monday the centers will be closed by June 27, when Senate Bill 1 is set to go into effect in Ohio. That law bars diversity, equity and inclusion programs in higher education across the state.
