HOT TOPICS

Annual Safety Plan Certification Reminder

Schools must annually certify to the Ohio Department of Education that their safety plan documents are current and accurate. School and district administrators with compliant school safety plans, from 2017 and earlier, have until July 1 of each year to complete this annual review. Schools should ensure floor plans, emergency procedures and emergency contact sheets represent the current location, processes and staff at the school.

Regional Trainings for School Attendance Mediation Scheduled for June

The Supreme Court of Ohio, in conjunctionwith the Department of Education, is hosting four regional school attendance mediation trainings throughout the month of June. The training prepares professional mediators to navigate situations commonly encountered by students, schools, and families when confronted with barriers that may hinder school attendance. Individuals who are interested in learning how to mediate school attendance issues are welcome to attend. The training is free and materials will be provided. Reservations are limited to 25 participants per location.

Ohio School-Based Health Care Toolkit

The State of Ohio is excited to announce the launch of the new Ohio School-Based Health Care Toolkit. This resource is part of a collaborative effort between the Ohio Departments of Education, Medicaid, Health, and Mental Health and Addiction Services, alongside the Governor’s Office of Health Transformation, and marks the first time anywhere in the country such a broad range of state agencies have come together to work on this important issue. Across the state, students are experiencing health challenges that prevent them from achieving their academicpotential.Whether it ismissingclass totravel toofficevisits, needing glasses to see the whiteboard, struggling with undiagnosed or unmanaged behavioral or mental health issues, or lacking an entry point to the primary health care system, untreated health conditions have an impact on academic achievement. By bringing health care to schools and meeting students where they are, health and learning can improve. The Ohio School-Based Health Care Toolkit supports schools and health care providers in developing partnerships to improve student access to high quality care. This toolkit includes Ohio-specific guidance and best practices for schools and health care providers as they work together to develop the model that works best in their community. Questions answered in toolkit materials include:

• How does school-based health care work? • What are the key steps in getting started? • How do we formalize our partnership? • How can we build a sustainable partnership?

The toolkit is available at http://education.ohio.gov/SBHealthcareToolkit . This resource will empower schools and health care providers as they work to form partnerships which improve student access to high quality care and better prepare the whole student for future success. Thank you to the many Ohio school districts, health care providers, community associations and other stakeholders who contributed to this effort. If you have any questions or feedback on the toolkit, please contact schoolbasedhealthcare@education.ohio.gov .

Preparing Our Students with Disabilities for Success: Supporting Secondary Transition Services across Ohio The Office for Exceptional Children (OEC) appreciates the effort Ohio’s school districts must take to begin formally implementing secondary transition services for over 20,000 fourteen-year-old students with disabilities and recognizes the pivotal role secondary transition plays in the lives of our students. As such, OEC is releasing a portion of its Secondary Transition Enhancement funds to support this important work; proportionately allocating a flat rate of $14 per district of residence and $44.50 per student with a disability aged 14 as reported by the school district of residence (DOR) in the OEC October 31, 2017 Child Count. This calculation means, for example, that a school district with 25 students will receive $14 + $1,112.50 for a total of $1,126.50. OEC will load funds into the school district CCIP by May 15, 2018. Funds must be entirely spent down by June 30, 2018. OEC acknowledges and recognizes the timing of the release of these funds. Suggestions for appropriate use of the funds are included below. Not sure how to use the funds? Keep in mind all partner schools and agencies and focus on resources that support the Taxonomy for Transition Programming categories of Student-Focused Planning, Student Development, Interagency Collaboration, Program Structures, and Family Engagement. Examples could include: Materials • Council for Exceptional Children Transition Publications • Council for Exceptional Children Transition Resource Set • Whose Future is it? – A research-based curriculum for self-determination and self-awareness • ChoiceMaker Self-Determination Lesson Materials – Be sure to check out the Self-Directed IEP • Consider using funds to offset printing costs to create multiple packages for use throughout the district. Professional Organization Memberships • Council for Exceptional Children/ Division on Career Development and Transition • Ohio Association for Career and Technical Education/Special Needs Division • Association for Career and Technical Education *ACTE members must simultaneously hold Ohio ACTE membership Professional Development Opportunities • Host learning sessions for both general education teachers and intervention specialists around the Secondary Transition for Students with Disabilities modules in ODE’s L earning Management System or the EnvisionIT Curriculum . Funds could cover the cost of substitutes to maximize personnel participation. Considerations When Serving Smaller Numbers of Students • The funds you receive may not be enough to purchase large items such as those above. However, they could still benefit your students. Consider some small ways you could inspire your students to identify and advocate for their preferences, interests, needs, and strengths. Items such as an inspirational book, interview question cards, a bus pass to work one day, and more, could be individualized ways to utilize the funds. Personalized gestures demonstrating your commitment to their success in secondary transition can make a significant impact.

University of Dayton/BASA Superintendent Licensure Program Cohort - Class Schedule 2018-2019

University of Dayton Department of Educational Administration Principles of academic practice form the structure of all EDA programs aligned with these professional standards. First, the pedagogical goals for you and all students in EDA include planned growth in your knowledge, performance, and dispositions, the constructs of our professional affiliation with ELCC. Second, a “knowledge” base of effective school leadership exists and is the foundation of what you as a potential school leader need to master to be effective in producing improved student learning outcomes. “Performance” is defined by ELCC as those proficiencies in subject, professional and pedagogical knowledge, skills, and dispositions that benefit student learning. “Performance” is also described as related to the quality of institutional practice, in addition to individual practice. “Dispositions” are defined as those values, commitments, and professional ethics that influence your behaviors toward students, families, colleagues, and communities and affect student learning. These principles include a heavy emphasis on pedagogy that is practice-related, problem- based, i.e., “field” related. In EDA courses you will be continually engaged in building your knowledge - knowledge that is based in research and applied to practice in real schools. Throughout each EDA program, you will apply sound leadership knowledge to problems of contemporary PK-12 public , Catholic and other non-public schools.
