CUYAHOGA FALLS CITY
Cuyahoga Falls is a city school district serving approximately 5,000 students from kindergarten through 12th grade. Given our commitment to an “Excellent” education designed to prepare students for a global economy, the students of the Cuyahoga Falls City School District enjoy an outstanding array of educational opportunities. We believe that it is our responsibility to meet every child where they are cognitively, and ensure they achieve at least one year’s growth for each academic year. While the philosophical expectation seems simplistic, it requires that each student is provided an education that meets their individual needs. And, it demands a system of constant monitoring such that academic growth is ensured. To meet this expectation, programs such as gifted education, career-technical, honors, and dual enrollment post-secondary opportunities are seamlessly integrated into each student’s course of study. Our students have the opportunity to select from the many Career Technical Programs and College Tech Prep Programs offered through the Six-District Compact, and the full complement of College Prep, Honors-level and Advanced Placement (AP) courses offered at Cuyahoga Falls High School. Given our articulation agreements with Kent State University, University of Akron, and our relationships with other area post-secondary institutions, many Cuyahoga Falls High School students have the opportunity to graduate with post-secondary credits and therefore save time and money, some even have the opportunity to graduate with an associate’s degree and high school diploma simultaneously. We also believe that students benefit greatly by participating in co/extra-curricular activities. As such, Cuyahoga Falls City School District offers a full complement of academic clubs, interscholastic athletic teams, a tremendous music program, and other student activities of which we are most proud. Behind all of these incredible opportunities is a caring and dedicated staff. We believe that by incorporating the themes of rigor, relevance, and responsibility into our team approach to education, we provide “Excellent” educational opportunities for each and every Cuyahoga Falls City School District student.

The Revere School Local School District, which is located in northeastern Ohio between the cities of Akron and Cleveland, was formed in the early 1950's after the communities of Bath and Richfield voted to combine their two smaller school systems. The consolidation was approved and the new district was named the Revere Local School District. The Board of Education at that time purchased land for future use. Over the next decade a high school, middle school and an elementary school were built. The district continued to use Bath Elementary School and a substantial addition was added to that facility. Over the ensuing fifty years, the district built and maintains a strong academic reputation with students performing well academically, artistically and athletically. The district has achieved an “Excellent” rating on the Ohio Department of Education's Local Report Card since this rating system was implemented in 2000. The district's population is a mix of professional, business and technical personnel who are proud of their schools. The level of parental and community support for the students and schools is remarkable. The area surrounding the district abounds in cultural, recreational and educational opportunities. It is close to major expressways which provide easy access to Akron, Cleveland and the Ohio Turnpike, yet still retains a rural beauty.
