We’re your regional resource center.
Covering the largest service region in Ohio, Muskingum Valley Educational Service Center (MVESC) offers a wide range of professional services supporting our students, educational professionals and the community. We’re dedicated to providing high-quality, cost-effective services to the school districts and community partners in Coshocton, Hocking, Muskingum, Noble, Perry and Tuscarawas counties. At MVESC, we provide services that support instruction, administration, personnel and finance. We also facilitate collaborative endeavors that support the implementation of federal and state regulations.
