Military Family Resources
Supporting Ohio's Military Families

ohio

Since Sept. 11, 2001, more than 18,000 Ohio National Guard members have been deployed to serve in the global war on terrorism. Altogether, more than 60,000 Ohioans have actively served their nation away from home. Approximately 34,000 students in Ohio are members of military families. Frequent moves and family separations through deployments, as well as reintegration issues make life especially challenging. Ohio offers a number of programs to assist military families. | Military Family Resources

Educator License Fees Waived for Veterans and Those in the Military

The Ohio Department of Education is eliminating fees for educator licenses to recognize the contributions of military families. Beginning Jan. 2, 2015, the fees for any initial Ohio educator license, permit or certificate – or for a renewal – will be waived for candidates who are veterans or current service members of all branches of the United States Armed Forces, including the National Guard or Reserves. Spouses of active duty services members also may receive a license free of charge. ODEW Ohio Educators with Military Connections

Purple Star Award

The Purple Star Award for military-friendly schools recognizes schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military. Schools that earn the award will receive a special Purple Star recognition to display onsite. ODEW Purple Star Designation

Troops to Teachers

Troops to Teachers is a national program, funded by the U.S. Department of Education and administered by the Department of Defense through an agency called the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES). The program helps eligible military personnel begin new careers as teachers in PK-12 public schools where their skills, knowledge and experience are needed most. Learn More about Troops to Teachers

Month of the Military Child

In 1986, the Secretary of Defense designated each April as “The Month of the Military Child” and all branches of services provide special days and events to honor their children. This commemoration recognizes the contributions that military children make as their parents, guardians and families serve our nation. Because of their resilience and ability to deal with life-changing events, military children are an inspiration and a source of pride for our nation. 


Hoover HS is committed to supporting children of military families.  On staff, Hoover HS Counselors Mrs. Crystal Ake and Mrs. Amy Myers have been trained on the many sacrifices and challenges military families and students may face.  Mrs. Ake and Mrs. Myers are also trained on the many local resources especailly available for military families.  Below are resources military families may find helpful.
