About Us

The Ravenna School District is one of the largest school districts in Portage County with over 2,200 students in grades pre-K through 12. The district serves students through a preschool program, three elementary schools, one middle school and one high school which are staffed by almost 185 certified staff members. Maintenance and custodial staff, secretaries, food service employees, transportation personnel and instructional assistants are all part of our support personnel. Ravenna is located in southern Portage County, about one hour southeast of Cleveland, and 30 minutes northeast of Akron. Situated in the county seat, Ravenna is convenient to numerous government and community agencies that serve our families.

Our academic programming follows the Ohio Academic Content Standards. Students with special needs, including those with disabilities and those identified for the gifted and talented program are provided with specialized instruction. All students in the elementary buildings receive instruction in art, music and physical education. Students in the middle school and high school also have access to those classes in addition to other exploratories and electives. The high school offers honors and AP classes as well as post-secondary options. Numerous extracurricular and athletic options are available to help provide students with well-rounded experiences in our schools.
