Opt-in impacts Gap Closing component rating
Community schools must annually notify the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce of the school’s election to receive the gifted performance indicator under Ohio Administrative Code.
To opt-in, community schools must complete and return the Community School Gifted Performance Indicator opt-in form to the Department by July 1, 2025.
By opting in, the school will have the gifted performance indicator as a contributor to the school’s Gap Closing component rating as part of the Ohio School Report Cards.
Direct questions about the opt-in form or the Ohio School Report Cards to accountability@education.ohio.gov.
