The P-12 Project is a university-wide initiative housed in the Office of Academic Affairs that works to improve Ohio’s schools with a special focus on the education of underserved children and youth. Our primary goal is simple: increase success for all students. Our name reflects our focus: preschool through 12th grade. We forge connections among the university, schools, and communities and foster effective research and practice in P-12 education.

Cranbrook Students Go Green
Through a partnership forged by the P-12 Project, students from Cranbrook Elementary in Columbus City Schools learned about sustainability and environmental preservation by working with the Ohio State business operations department. Ohio State staff met with Cranbrook students throughout the year to engage in green activities, such as planting trees on Arbor Day, decorating paper bags used at a grocery store on Earth Day, and recycling more than 12,000 plastic bottle caps. At the end of the year, Cranbrook students visited the campus. The partnership is one example of how the P-12 Project connects Ohio schools to the university.
