The Revere Local School District, "The National School of Excellence" is located directly between Bath, Ohio and Richfield Village, Ohio. The District is broken up into four schools, Revere High School, Revere Middle School, Bath Elementary School, and Hillcrest Elementary School. "The Revere learning community will establish and support a learning environment that promotes individual student success.
The Revere School Local School District, which is located in northeastern Ohio between the cities of Akron and Cleveland, was formed in the early 1950s after the communities of Bath and Richfield voted to combine their two smaller school systems. The consolidation was approved and the new district was named the Revere Local School District.
The Board of education at that time purchased land for future use. Over the next decade a high school, middle school and an elementary school were built. The district continued to use Bath Elementary School and a substantial addition was added to that facility.
Over the ensuing fifty years, the district built and maintains a strong academic reputation with students performing well academically, artistically and athletically. The district has achieved an "Excellent" rating on the Ohio Department of Education's Local Report Card since this rating system was implemented in 2000.
The district's population is a mix of professional, business and technical personnel who are proud of their schools. The household income in the area is significantly higher than both the state average and national average. The level of parental and community support for the students and schools is higher than most schools. The area surrounding the district abounds in cultural, recreational and educational opportunities. It is close to major expressways which provide easy access to Akron, Cleveland, and the Ohio Turnpike, yet still retains a rural beauty.
Famous quotes containing the words revere, local, school and/or district:
“A penniless man who has no ties to bind him is master of himself at any rate, but a luckless wretch who is in love no longer belongs to himself, and may not take his own life. Love makes us almost sacred in our own eyes; it is the life of another that we revere within us; then and so begins for us the cruelest trouble of all.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“The poet’s eye, in a fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The first rule of education for me was discipline. Discipline is the keynote to learning. Discipline has been the great factor in my life. I discipline myself to do everything—getting up in the morning, walking, dancing, exercise. If you won’t have discipline, you won’t have a nation. We can’t have permissiveness. When someone comes in and says, “Oh, your room is so quiet,” I know I’ve been successful.”
—Rose Hoffman, U.S. public school third-grade teacher. As quoted in Working, book 8, by Studs Terkel (1973)
“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
