Rossford Junior High School

What Rossford Junior High School does

Rossford Junior High School is one campus within Rossford Exempted Village Schools, a public K-12 school district headquartered at 701 Superior Street in Rossford, Ohio. The district operates Rossford Preschool, Rossford Elementary School (preschool through grade 6), and Rossford Junior-Senior High School (grades 7-12), serving nearly 1,800 students with 256 teachers, staff, and regular substitutes. It is governed by an elected Board of Education, led by Superintendent Dan Creps and Treasurer Joe Corfman, and delivers a standard public-education program including special education, gifted cluster grouping, College Credit Plus coursework (660 credits earned in the prior year), a Gold-rated preschool under Ohio's Step Up To Quality initiative, 19 interscholastic sports, and a drama program. The district is the sole public K-12 provider for residents of the Rossford Exempted Village School District catchment in Wood County, Ohio.

The underlying technology stack is typical of mid-sized U.S. public school districts rather than a proprietary platform: PowerSchool serves as the student information system with a parent portal, Clever provides single sign-on across instructional apps, Google Workspace supports staff email and intranet, My Ride K-12 handles bus route tracking, and LINQ Connect manages student lunch accounts. Instructional technology is anchored by a 1:1 student-to-device program and VR headsets used in a career-exploration partnership with Penta Career Center. No AI or machine learning capabilities are disclosed in the operating stack.

The business model is non-commercial public funding: revenue is derived from local property taxes, state per-pupil foundation aid, and federal Title I and Title II-A grants. Tuition is not charged to in-district residents; out-of-district families may apply through a space-available open-enrollment process on a first-come basis. Additional programmatic revenue flows indirectly through grants (for example, a First Solar-supported summer camp) and partnerships with Bowling Green State University, Owens Community College, and the Community Learning Center that expand summer and enrichment offerings without direct student fees.
