The bipartisan committee is comprised of five Senators and five Representatives. LOEO's purpose is to prepare research reports and information memos on education topics selected by the Committee.
Research reports evaluate programs and typically provide conclusions and recommendations.
Although the programs to be evaluated are selected by Committee members, legislation to implement LOEO recommendations can be introduced by any member of the Ohio General Assembly. LOEO reports are prepared as pdf files and the Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to view them. The majority of the reports are scanned from paper copies.
