Television Stations
A total of eight public television licensees operate 12 stations across the state reaching more than 4.3 million viewers each week. Located in every major city in Ohio as well as rural areas, the broadcast and service areas of the 12 stations cover the entire state.

Ohio public televisions stations provide the most utilized source of lifelong learning for all Ohioans and serve as a valuable link between the educational field and the community. Ohio public television stations were established, in large part, to provide instructional broadcast programming and support services to all Ohio districts and schools. Additionally, each public television licensee has close ties with higher education institutions in its region.

Associated with each public television station in Ohio is an educational technology agency. These ed tech agencies work with eTech Ohio and its public TV partner to deliver K-12 programming to Ohio schools and meet the state's educational goals.
