The Bridge To
Tomorrow
 The Jefferson County Educational Service Center (JCESC) was one of 88 county school districts established in 1914 by the Ohio General Assembly.  County school districts were charged with responsibility for elevating the state’s system of education to a proper standard, and the work of county staff was primarily regulatory and compliance-driven.  Staff developed courses of study, provided teacher inservice training, and supervised classrooms.  In 1995, county school districts were renamed educational service centers, a title that appropriately describes a shift in focus from compliance to service and reflects the current work of ESCs.

JCESC Leads Culturally Responsive Practices Training
The Jefferson County Educational Service Center led a Culturally Responsive Practices training session with Harrison Hills City Schools’ district team on Wednesday. Amber Fomenko, JCESC director of special education, and Ron Sismondo, JCESC director of curriculum and professional development, were facilitators of the program that includes four courses: Program Introduction, Cultural Responsiveness, Socio-Political Awareness and Academic Achievement. Officials completed the second course, which introduces the importance of understanding the social and political topics that shape the lives of students, families and communities. Educators also consider how to use these topics in their classrooms in ways that are genuine to their students and provide opportunities for students to enact change in their communities. Training has been provided to Indian Creek, Toronto and Harrison with Buckeye Local slated for next year. Interested districts may contact Fomenko or Sismondo at JCESC at (740) 283-3347.
