Stark County Partners Collaborate to Succeed

The Stark Education Partnership board and  staff recently completed a yearlong strategic planning process and reviewed significant progress made toward three high-level objectives: high school graduation, college-going rates, and degree attainment. 

The Stark schools and partners can be proud of the convergence of collaborative efforts successfully implemented to  ensure graduates are college, career and life ready. Stark benefits from an effective and efficient Education Service Center, six innovative and collaborative colleges/ universities, as well as committed foundations and business partners who are invested in ensuring a high-quality education for all students in Stark County.

  • 97.4% of 3rd grade students met the promotion standard for reading
  • 5,934 students are enrolled in college courses while in high school, an increase from 461 students in 2007

  • Over 100 students are engaged in the International Baccalaureate's demanding curriculum
  • Many students are earning associate degrees while in high school at Timken Early College High School and Perry High School
