Welcome to South Side Academy!
South Side Academy serves students in kindergarten through 8th grades. We provided a diverse learning environment with opportunities for students to excel.
Rather than a one size fits all model, South Side's curriculum program is designed to offer students with different needs and learning styles an exceptional academic program.
The South Side Academy is a community school established under Chapter 3314. of the Revised Code. The school is a public school and students enrolled in and attending the school are required to take proficiency tests and other examinations prescribed by law. In addition, there may be other requirements for students at the school that are prescribed by law. Students who are exempt from the compulsory attendance law for the purpose of home education pursuant to section 3321.042 of the Revised Code shall no longer be exempt for that purpose upon their enrollment in a community school. For more information about this matter contact the school administration or the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce.

New STEAM Education Program
We are excited to announce we now offer a STEAM program! STEAM Education is an approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics. Using STEAM education students engage in experiential learning, experience taking thoughtful risks, embrace problem-solving and collaborate through the creative process.
STEAM Lab
The STEAM lab's curriculum is an extension to science and math. It includes hands-on activities that emphasize the application of scientific concepts. Most of these concepts we see, use, and experience in our daily lives.
Learning, Recovery and Extended Learning
In response to Governor DeWine’s request, South Side Academy has created a unique plan to help students continue to advance academically and to make up for any learning that may have been lost or delayed due to the pandemic.
