P-12 Project

Mission and Goals: The mission of the P-12 Project is to assist in the improvement of Ohio’s schools, particularly in districts that serve children and youths from lower socio-economic families. In order to develop, implement, and nurture a coherent strategic P-12 outreach plan, we have the following goals:

• To initiate, incubate, and support projects closely aligned with school improvement and increased student performance.
• To provide a single, initial point of contact for those interested in P-12 activities.
• To provide an organizing structure to relate OSU’s P-12 activities into a consistent campus-wide outreach program.
• To develop and sustain an ongoing relationship with the thirteen university-area schools to improve the educational opportunities for the students and families in Ohio State’s immediate neighborhood.
• To link initiatives, people, and projects in order to increase impact and avoid redundancy.
