2025 Ohio Military Signing Day
The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce, in partnership with schools and communities, hosted the 2025 Military Signing Day for Ohio's students committed to military service. Students in grades 11 and 12 who committed to military service were invited to attend, including those Ohio students who:
- Will attend a service academy in the fall;
- Accepted a Reserve Officer Training Corp (ROTC) scholarship; or
- Enlisted for service as active duty, Reserve, or National Guard.
This year’s celebration took place at the National Veterans Memorial and Museum, 300 W. Broad Street, Columbus, on Tuesday, March 11 and featured two student speakers who shared their thoughts on the topic, "What is your reason for joining the armed forces?"
