ED STEPS

Education Department's System of Tiered E-Plans and Supports

Welcome to YOUR NEW ED STEPS system! ED STEPS will enable districts to develop one comprehensive plan for student growth and leverage all its federal and other resources in creating programs based on available funding to better serve students and communities. This will make it easier for districts and schools to coordinate administrative planning with program planning and implementation.

ED STEPS Planning Cycle

As part of the Ohio Department of Education’s ED STEPS process, organizations within Ohio are assigned to one of three cohorts. Each cohort is associated with a starting year. Cohorts 1, 2 and 3 have starting fiscal years of 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively. In each year, the organizations that are part of that cohort will begin three-year planning. This will include identifying needs in a three-year format and writing three-year plans.  For more information please check out our pages below.
