OEF recently partnered with the Olentangy Dyslexia Network (ODN) to establish a fund that will be used for the education of Olentangy students with dyslexia. The Olentangy Dyslexia Network was established in 2013 with support from district leadership to provide a community of education and support for dyslexic families while ensuring that scientific- and research-based services are delivered equally and with fidelity by the Olentangy Schools. Since then, the network has provided guidance and resources to both the families and staff of Olentangy Schools.
ODN was instrumental in pushing out Orton-Gillingham training to the staff of Olentangy Schools, which is a program designed for students with dyslexia and those in need of reading assistance. Olentangy Schools has been recognized as the only public school district in the nation to have an Orton-Gillingham accredited training program.
ODN recently transferred its assets to the Olentangy Education Foundation to establish the Olentangy Dyslexia Network Fund, which will provide classroom grants specifically for the benefit of educating students with dyslexia.
