OHVA Learning Coach Academy

• View and work through the Safe, Smart and Kind resources and safety ideas with your student.
• Consider having your student join a Belonging Book Club! We read books that build students' sense of belonging at OHVA and help instill a little wisdom with our youth.
• Examine the Safety website and understand we have our students' needs in mind as they educate with us. Carrie Mohre is our Safety Director at OHVA
• Download any resources you need from the Counselor websites.

We wanted you to have the content from the February 2025 AND February 2026 "My Life Online" program we hosted, on being Safe, Smart, and Kind - the type of people we belong with at OHVA.

Please click below to access each of the resources for Safe, Smart, and Kind.

You and your students are important! Everyone BELONGS!

At OHVA, belonging is important to us ~ so we are establishing grade band level Belonging Book Clubs.

The plan: Monthly meetings w/ the Book Clubs for each grade band (K-2, 3-5, MS and HS)

We will read different books each month for the lower grades (K-2, 3-5). For upper grades, focus on one title per semester, with resources list for additional reading. Students will obtain a digital version, borrow from the library or purchase. Meetings begin September 15, 2025. More to come!

Report Concerns for Student Safety: 844-723-3764

The Safer Ohio School Tip Line is a free safety resource available to all Ohio schools. The tip line is an anonymous reporting system that accepts tips via call, text, webform, and mobile app 24 hours-a-day. Anyone can download the Safer Ohio School Tip Line app or use the webform.

This tip line allows students and adults to anonymously share information with school officials and law enforcement about threats to student safety — whether that involves a threatened mass incident or harm to a single student.

Things to report to the tip line include (but are not limited to):

• Bullying incidents;

• Withdrawn student behaviors;

• Verbal or written threats observed toward students, faculty or schools;

• Hazing;

• Weapon/suspicious devices on or near school grounds;

• Gang-related activities;

• Unusual/suspicious behavior of students or staff;

• Self-harm or suicidal sentiments; and

• Any other school safety-related concerns.
