2020 Ohio School Report Cards

9/11/2020

The Ohio Department of Education (ODE) announced that the 2020 Ohio School Report Cards will be released next Tuesday (September 15, 2020). The School Report Cards will not include letter grades. This is due to the prohibition on issuing letter grades for the 2019-20 school year on the School Report Cards provided for in House Bill (HB) 197 (one of the coronavirus response bills passed in March). 

Senate Bill (SB) 358 would extend the suspension on the issuance of report card grades and related penalties for the next two school years. SB 358 is currently under consideration in the Senate Education Committee (see additional information below).

ODE has created a FAQ offering explanations for the most common questions about the accountability system and this year’s School Report Cards. Additional information can be found here.
