Ohio’s Learning Standards outline the skills and knowledge that will help students become ready for success in college and careers. Ohio educators have gained valuable experience with the standards since they began teaching with them several years ago. With their help and the public’s, the Ohio Department of Education is fine-tuning Ohio’s standards in several areas of study.

Ohio has completed its revision of the standards in English and Mathematics and Ohio's tests will reflect these changes beginning during the 2018-19 school year.

Ohio's standards in Social Studies, Financial Literacy and Science have been revised.  The expected schedule calls for approval of the revised standards by winter 2018, so teachers can begin using them in the 2018-2019 school year.
