Hi, my family is relocating to the Garrettsville/Ravenna, OH area and I would like to know information about the schools and which district would be best for my children. I have a son who will be in 9th grade next year and two children with Down syndrome who will be in 5th and 7th grade. Does anyone know any information about the schools in this area?

Ohio rates its schools in the following order:

• Excellent with Distinction
• Excellent
• Effective
• Continuous Improvement
• Academic Watch
• Academic Emergency

Garrettsville's schools, James A. Garfield Local Schools were rated excellent with distinction last year, which is the state's highest rating. http://www.ode.state.oh.us/reportcar...IST/049205.pdf
In addition, Garfield is the second best rated district in Portage County right behind Aurora.

Ravenna City Schools are rated as Effective, which I would consider average. http://www.ode.state.oh.us/reportcar...IST/049205.pdf

Between the two school systems, I would go with Garfield in a heartbeat.
