Welcome to 2024! As we kick off a new year, please remember that OSBA offers many tools and resources to help you organize your board and keep track of approaching legal deadlines, upcoming workshops and seminars, and other important dates.

These include:

  • OSBA’s School board organizational meeting and oath of office fact sheet. This fact sheet is designed to assist boards and district administrators by answering some of the commonly asked questions concerning the annual organizational meeting and administering the oath of office to board members.
  • OSBA’s Revised Code Dates and Deadlines calendar. OSBA’s division of legal services compiles a list of many of the statutory deadlines for school districts that appear in the Ohio Revised Code. These include nonrenewal deadlines, ODE reporting deadlines, election deadlines, financial reporting deadlines, and more. There is also a link on the website where you can subscribe to this calendar, which will allow you to add the important school dates and deadlines to your existing electronic calendars.
  • OSBA training calendar. OSBA lists its scheduled events for the upcoming year on its training calendar. Bookmark this page and check it often, as OSBA regularly adds new opportunities for training.

Best wishes for a wonderful 2024! We look forward to working with you and your districts in the year ahead and hope to see you at some of our upcoming events!
