City River High School

This channel tells the story of founding City River High School.

City River is an independent, secular, co-ed high school opening on Cleveland's near west side in the fall of 2027. We are diverse by design and built around three core values: rigorous academics, daily movement, and a deep commitment to developing students as learners and young adults.

City River is founded by Jake Taylor and built on lessons learned over fifteen years in schools from Harlem to Cleveland. Each of those communities shaped our belief in what is possible when a school commits fully to the growth of its students. City River brings that work together under one roof.

Follow along for the story of how a school gets built and the families and students who will shape City River alongside us.
