The Berea City School District is located in Berea, Ohio that serves Berea, Brook Park, and Middleburg Heights, as well as a portion of Olmsted Falls.

The district consists of one high school, one junior high school, one intermediate school, and four elementary schools.

High school

Junior high school

  • Middleburg Heights Jr. High School, which houses grades 7-9, was founded in 1959 as Midpark High School. It was changed into a junior high during the 2013-2014 school year.

Intermediate school

  • Ford Intermediate School, which houses grades 5 and 6, was founded in 1968 as a middle school. It was converted into an intermediate school during the 2013-2014 school year.

  • Fairwood (closed 2009)

Consolidations

Berea City Schools closed Parknoll, Smith, and Riveredge Elementary schools in 2011. Fairwood Elementary was demolished in 2009 to make way for a new elementary school, Grindstone Elementary. Fairwood's 850 students were transferred to Smith Elementary until the new 'combined' elementary school opened in 2011. Berea High School and Midpark High School was consolidated into one high school called Berea-Midpark High School for the 2013-2014 school year. The current Midpark High School was renamed the Middleburg Heights Junior High that now houses the district’s seventh to ninth graders. Ford Intermediate School, formerly Ford Middle School, includes fifth and sixth graders. Roehm Middle School in Berea closed at the end of the 2012-2013 school year and was demolished. The property has been converted to the district's athletic complex.[3]

Music Education

As of 2012, the Berea City School District has been ranked as one of the "Best Communities for Music Education" in the United States 12 consecutive times.[4]
