Governor’s Announcement
Governor DeWine recently announced the New Teacher Apprenticeship Program. This program looks to address the teacher shortage Ohio faces as well as create opportunities for those who already work in our schools — like paraprofessionals, library specialists, or bus drivers — to transition to teaching. Candidates participating in the New Teacher Apprenticeship Program are also eligible for the new Grow Your Own Teacher scholarships. Additional information on the New Teacher Apprenticeship Program can be found here
