In 1997, Jamie Callender was elected to the [[Ohio House of Representatives]] for four terms (maximum under term limits) to represent District 70 (& eventually District 62), of western Lake County which included Concord Township, [[Eastlake, Ohio|Eastlake]], Kirtland, Kirtland Hills, [[Lakeline, Ohio|Lakeline]], [[Mentor-on-the-Lake, Ohio|Mentor-on-the-Lake]], [[Timberlake, Ohio|Timberlake]], Waite Hill, [[Wickliffe, Ohio|Wickliffe]], [[Willoughby, Ohio|Willoughby]], Willoughby Hills, and [[Willowick, Ohio|Willowick]]. As Chairman of the Ohio House Education Committee, Representative Callender was an integral part of the creation of Ohio's charter school laws and shepherding legislative reforms thereafter as a champion of community ("charter") schools. He was instrumental in creating "value added" as a measurement of a child's educational progress. Representative Callender was appointed as Ohio's representative on the Education Commission of the States (ECS), and worked closely with the Bush administration and various state governors to develop the national education standards and accountability measurements as used today – work that led to the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act. |

In 2021, Callender introduced an overhaul of the state's education funding system, the [[Ohio Fair School Funding Plan (HB 1)]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=House Bill 1 {{!}} The Ohio Legislature|url=https://www.legislature.ohio.gov/legislation/legislation-summary?id=GA134-HB-1|access-date=2021-06-17|website=www.legislature.ohio.gov}}</ref> |
