Schools

Kleckner Elementary School, which housed grades 3 and 4, was closed at the end of the 2011 school year due to financial constraints.[2] The original part of the building was constructed in 1903.[2]

Demographics

On average, 4026 students attend Green Local Schools. The majority of the students are white (92.3%), while other races include 2.2% Asian or Pacific Islander, 2.2% Multiracial, 1.9% Black, and 1.2% Hispanic. Approximately 12.7% of the students have disabilities and 1.5% have limited English proficiency. Around 18.2% of students are economically disadvantaged.[3]

Career Center

The Portage Lakes Career Center, or PLCC, is a local building in the Green Local Schools district that allows high school students to take courses that can help them learn skills that would be used in real-world jobs.

Portage Lakes Career Center is in compliance with the standard and criteria for Postsecondary Schools established by the Board of Trustees of the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI).

Lunch scandal

In late 2019, staff at Green Primary School disposed of a student's hot lunch and replaced it with a cheese sandwich with milk, due to his negative lunch money balance. Green Local Schools addressed the allegations later that week and reformed its lunch policy after receiving nation-wide criticism.[4]
