Cleveland Council of Independent Schools

CCIS, a nonprofit tax exempt 501 (c) (3) organization, was founded in 1967 to promote cooperation among four independent

schools of northeastern Ohio in areas in which collaborative efforts might create greater benefits for all. Today,

CCIS consists of over 4,500 students with 13 unique schools committed to the ideal of an independent education as

a valuable and viable choice for learning today: 

In reflecting the diversity in our childrens' learning styles and recognizing the need to offer a range of independent

school experiences, we are coed day schools, an all male day school, all female day schools, Montessori

schools, boarding schools and schools that deal with children with learning differences.
