Cleveland Heights earned its stripes as one of Cleveland's original streetcar suburbs, and that historic character is still woven into every tree-lined street and century-old mansion. Sitting just east of University Circle, the city puts you within reach of world-class museums, medical institutions, and the energy of a major metro without the downtown noise. Cain Park serves as a true community anchor, hosting a beloved arts festival each summer that draws crowds from across Northeast Ohio. Shaker Lakes borders the city to the south, offering nature trails and peaceful green space that feel a world away from the bustle of nearby neighborhoods.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
