Harvest for Hunger

Nine ESC member schools earned the Ohio Department of Education's 2019-20 Purple Star Award.

The value of the Stark County Educational Service Center (SCESC) cannot be overstated.[1] During this extraordinarily unfamiliar time with COVID-19 school closings, the SCESC's combined talents and skills are a shining light for districts, teachers, parents, students, families and the community.

The building will be closed from Friday, December 25, 2020, through Friday, January 1, 2021.  Happy Holidays!
