Top Priorities within Ohio’s plan:
   • Supporting the academic, social, and emotional needs of students and educators
   • Investing in academic resources, connectivity, and enhancing in-person, remote, hybrid, and
       blended education opportunities

Highlights of Ohio’s Plan:

   •   Returning to In Person Learning in 2021: The Ohio Department of Education (ODE)
       anticipates continued efforts from the state's schools and districts toward offering safe, fully in-
       person learning to all students who desire it.

   •   Safely Reopening Schools and Sustaining Safe Operations: Ohio is focused on providing
       vaccination opportunities to children ages 12 to 18 through several key channels including
       pediatricians, school partnerships, and summer food service program sites. Schools have the
       ability to offer vaccine opportunities to children through vaccine providers during their extended
       or summer learning opportunities, as well as during the fall.

   •   Supporting Students Most Impacted by the Pandemic: ODE will use state-level data to
       identify and report trends for students most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. ODE is
       building a multi-year plan to reach students impacted by the pandemic. Additionally, ODE
       requires each district to provide a description of how it is addressing the impact of the pandemic
       on particular groups of students.

   •   Supporting Students’ and Educators Social, Emotional, and Mental Health Needs: ODE will
       prioritize trauma-informed and culturally responsive practices to meet students' academic, social
       and emotional needs when they reengage in learning during the summer and the 2021-2022
       school year by responding to mental health data from the Ohio Healthy Youth Environments
       Survey. Additionally, ODE is partnering with the Governor's office, the Ohio Department of
       Medicaid, and the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services to expand school-
       based services and increase behavioral and physical health supports for students.

   •   When Ohio’s LEA Use of Funds Plans will be due: August 20, 2021
