Upper Sandusky Exempted Village Schools

Ohio Graduation Test Central

Beginning with the class of 2007, all students must pass the Ohio Graduation Test (OGT). The test was first given in the spring of 2005. Parents, teachers and students can find valuable information at the below listed sites. Most of the links are to OGT specific materials...but I've also included some "gems" that I think you will find very helpful. Most recent state data is now available here.
