The building has a long history, a modern restoration, and a schedule that keeps the lights on through the colder months.

Accounting error caused Coshocton City Schools funding discrepancy

COSHOCTON – A dispute over Coshocton City Schools' property tax revenue has been traced to a district accounting error that affected both its reported fund balances and state financial forecast. The district said it received the correct amount of property tax revenue from the Coshocton County Auditor's Office but mistakenly placed some of the money in the general fund instead of the permanent improvement fund. The clarification follows a disagreement over previously reported figures showing the district receiving $453,962 less in its general fund in 2026 compared with 2025. Coshocton County Auditor Grant Daugherty challenged that characterization in a Nov. 9 release, stating county records show the district actually received more property tax revenue in 2026. More: Coshocton schools face $454K tax shortfall amid teacher contract talks In a Nov. 10 release, the district said Treasurer Terri Eyerman addressed the issue during the Oct. 29 school board meeting and confirmed the correct amount of money had been received from the auditor's office. The district said the problem was money intended for permanent improvements was originally deposited and forecast as general fund revenue. Accounting entries moving the money to the proper fund created the variance the district had previously reported. The
