All meals are included in the cost of registration. Scholarship applications must be made through the NWOEA Office.
NWOEA is offering ten district scholarships as well as up to ten matching OEA Scholarships. All members are encouraged to apply.

Please note that NWOEA does not register scholarship recipients nor make hotel reservations. We will notify our scholarship recipients by email and give instructions for online academy registration, as well as hotel information, but recipients must take care of their own academy registration and hotel reservation.
This event should not be missed! For more information about the 2024 OEA Summer Academy, please visit the OEA website (www.ohea.org) or refer to Ohio Schools. We especially urge you to encourage emerging leaders in your association to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
