Future-Ready	Sylvania Schools provides students with the skills required to be future-ready.
With local professional organizations and industry partnerships, we work with

leaders in the workforce to continuously evaluate the skills that our students need to succeed as they graduate and go to college, military or the workforce.

CommUnity

Sylvania Schools are at the heart of our community. Our students and staff give back to the area in a number of ways. Classes, buildings and student organizations participate in donation drives and other philanthropic
initiatives every year. Annually, our high schools	
raise thousands of dollars separately and
collaboratively for local organizations through student-led events.

Strategic Plan

Sylvania Schools recently completed the initial phase of creating a 5-year Strategic Plan. District staff, students, parents and community members participated in creating a living document that guides the District into the future.
