Ohio offers financial awards of $3,000 to $5,000, depending on the career field, tied to the hiring of active duty service members, honorably discharged veterans, National Guard and Reserve members, and their spouses as educators.
Contact the Ohio Military Veteran Educators Program at 614-466-4109 or OhioMVEP@education.ohio.gov before you are hired to confirm what the award covers and who claims it.
Your DD214, current military ID or orders, or your marriage certificate and the service member’s orders if you are the spouse, plus your Ohio educator license and hiring paperwork.
