Opioid Mitigation Strategies with the PBIS Framework
Students living in a home with a parent using opioids are more likely to experience a parental overdose, chronic stress, added household responsibilities and unmet mental health needs.
These students are at a higher risk for physical, academic, and social- emotional problems. In 2020, Ohio had 5,017 unintentional drug overdose deaths, a 3% increase over 2017 and a 25% increase over 2019.
Join this 1 hour (1) overview to learn how to connect opioid abuse prevention and mitigation strategies to your existing PBIS framework. Participants will also learn strategies to address the mental health needs of students negatively impacted by opioid use. See flyer for details.

SPP Indicator 14 Exiting Student Data Collection
Data Collection on Post-School Outcomes for Students with Disabilities
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Section 1416 (a) (3) requires that states report the post-school engagement of students with disabilities in post-secondary education and employment. Therefore, the Ohio Department of Education's Office for Exceptional Children is required to report the percentage of children with disabilities who, within one year of leaving high school, are enrolled in higher education, participating in a training program or competitively employed.
Historically, Ohio fulfilled this obligation through the Ohio Longitudinal Transition Study (OLTS). Post-school outcome data for students with disabilities will now be collected within a new exiting student follow-up collection developed by the Ohio general assembly and Ohio Department of Education. More information can be found on the Department’s exiting student collection webpage.
Please visit the Indicator 14 Exiting Student Data Collection webpage to access the Indicator 14 Exiting Student Data Collection Frequently Asked Questions document and the Indicator 14 Data Collection Template.
Contact ExceptionalChildren@education.ohio.gov with questions.
