President's Message

Kelli Cogan

It is an honor to serve as a Board Member of The Ohio Middle Level Association. Our organization is dedicated to serving the needs of young adolescents, as well as the educators, administrators, and adults that serve this unique age group. Our vision to educate, advocate and celebrate what drives all that we do. Middle school is an important time to build relationships, focus on the whole child, and help each child see and develop the potential they each hold. Through teaming, advisory, interdisciplinary connections, and strong partnerships between the school, home, family, and community, we can provide an environment focused on the success of all individuals. As President of The Ohio Middle Level Association, I invite you to become a member so that you will have the opportunity to engage in one of our many PD opportunities, recognize a colleague with one of our various awards, and get involved locally as an affiliate. Together, we can inspire and empower each other through learning and leading experiences. Our organization is only as strong as all of you who have a passion for middle level education and the success of your students.
