Webcast: Every Student Succeeds Act


Register for Every Student Succeeds Act webcast: Feb. 10 at 1 p.m.
The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires states to develop plans that address standards, assessments, school and district accountability, and special help for struggling schools. After a year of hard work and outreach which engaged more than 15,000 Ohioans, the Ohio Department of Education has released the draft overview and complete technical draft submission of Ohio’s Every Student Succeeds Act state plan.

Department leadership will host a webcast on Friday, Feb. 10, at 1 p.m. to discuss and share details about Ohio’s ESSA plan and discuss what it means for schools, students, educators and families. The webcast will also ask for additional feedback on the draft plan. The Department invites the public to review and comment on the overview during the comment period which is open through March 6. The Department will continue to incorporate input throughout the development of the final Ohio plan. The webcast will be recorded and available for playback.
