LCS In the News

Check out Lorain City Schools in the news this December! We believe in the power of local journalism and the importance of its role in the natural checks and balances to provide fair reporting to the residents of Lorain County. The month of December started strong with news about Lorain Schools’ financial future and approval from the Ohio Department of Education to begin implementing the district’s Academic Improvement Plan. Many highlights featured by local media partners include the Titan FAM Winter Wonderland and cooperative plans with the City of Lorain to use Pipe Yard for varsity baseball and softball games. We thank The Morning Journal and The Chronicle-Telegram for their steadfast and fair coverage of Lorain City Schools.
