Welcome to Clark School

Clark is a PreK-8 school that is committed to challenging students to succeed and grow while offering them the nurturing and support they need. We believe that strong relationships between scholars and teachers will ensure that scholars' individualized needs are being met. Clark offers a rigorous curriculum with a focus on first-hand experiences and field trips that emphasize real-world applications.

Clark encourages students to develop teamwork and leadership skills through extracurricular activities including baseball, track, cheerleading and a variety of clubs. We also aim to make parents and caregivers an integral part of the Clark community through parent-student events and parenting support groups.

Clark's preschool program earned a 5-star rating from Step Up to Quality, Ohio's evaluation system. We also offer programs for children who are preparing to enter preschool.

For our large population of English Language Learners (ELLs), we have in-classroom services including bilingual aides. Clark also employs nine special education teachers for students with special needs and disabilities.

Clark benefits from strong community partnerships with:
West 58th Street Church of God
Calvary United Methodist Church
Stockyard Development
Huntington Bank
PNC Bank
Clark Recreation Center
