To support the implementation of a more career-focused approached to education in Ohio, House Bill 110 has established funding to be used towards career awareness and exploration in each city, local, exempted village, and joint vocational school district, community school, and STEM school. Now more than ever, students need to see a connection between what they are learning in the classroom and their future careers. Ohio law requires local boards of education to adopt a policy on career advising. The Department provides model career advising policies and student success plans that districts may use to inform local plans. A high-level Guidance Document is available here!

Ohio’s strategic plan for education, Each Child, Our Future, puts the whole child at the center, where each component of the plan works harmoniously to support a whole-child approach. Likewise, Ohio’s Whole Child Framework also places the whole child at the center, with district, school, family and community supporting the needs of the whole child using a comprehensive approach. A whole child approach broadens district and school focus beyond academics to include meeting students social-emotional, physical and safety needs. The Whole Child Framework provides a blueprint to meet these whole child needs, which are foundational to a child’s intellectual and social development and necessary for students to fully engage in learning and school.
