State Of Ohio
I have taken my ParaEducator Praxsis test and passed it. I am not working in that classification at the moment. I took the test to expand my ability to look for employment. However, the Ohio Dept. of Education cannot tell me a thing about my license/certification. Can someone tell me who I can talk to that can help me with additional requirements to maintain my licensure. I am involved in professional development on an ongoing basis. I am employed by a private school and work mainly in what could be titled a Case Managers postion/Parent Mentor. I want to work with Autistic Children and have 100's of hours of training. I am working on getting trained in ABA.
Any direction that someone could point me to get information would be helpful.
Thanks,

I have been a certified
I have been a certified through the Ohio of Department of Education, from 1998
to July 2010.
As of September 2008, I am no longer employed with a school district(Cuyahoga County).
Several attempts, have been made to go back to the Cleveland Municipal School District, but they failed(crisis in
the school system).
Finally, I applied for a position with the East Cleveland School District, and paid them for the renewal of my certificate.
No response, from the East Cleveland School District and the Ohio Department of Education.
It would be greatly appreciated, if someone could forward additional information.
Thank you!
I recently moved here from
I recently moved here from another state. I am trying to find what requirements are neccessary to be paraprofessional. I worked in this field for more than 10 yrs. already.
I noticed that on the Ohio
I noticed that on the Ohio Education Aid Permit Application that it must be signed by the school superintendent and mailed to the employing Ohio school district. I have an associate degree in education, however, I do not want to teach in a school district.
I simply want to tutor from my home. Any idea as to how I can get certified without being involved with a school district? Thanks for any help!
Out of State & Highly Qualified
I have recently moved from Michigan (hsband transfered) to Ohio and am trying to find out if my Work Keys test which was requied in Michigan will hold any water in Ohio. Do I have to also take the Praxis test to be considered highly qualified here? I will subbing in Clinton county this year but only applied for the standard permit (which we did not have in Michigan) so I am a bit confused. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

ParaPro
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one having this problem. I took the test and passed it, but the Ohio Department of Education can't tell me how to get my certificate. Is there anyone who DOES know???

ODE ParaPro Certificate
I keep getting directed to the MR/DD board. However, they are so busy that no one has ever returned my phone calls. With the overwhelming need for ParaPro's for the children with ASD you would think someone would have an answer. I also have gleaned that in Ohio, only Title I bldgs. use ParaPros

Parapros
I would like information about how I can get more involved on the State Level as a Paraprofessional. I would like to be able to be the liason between my School District and the State of Ohio. Also, I would like to introduce the Parapfoessional Organization into my School District. Any information I could get would be awesome. Thanks very much.
