From the Desk of Principal Flood...
Welcome to Constellation Schools: Elyria Community's webpage! Parents tell us we are the “best-kept secret” in Elyria. Let me take this opportunity to introduce our school to you and share with you who we are and why we exist as the premier public charter school in Elyria. Elyria Community School is beginning its nineteenth year of operation and what a busy time of growing and changing it has been! Elyria Community School (ECS) opened its doors in 2001 with 75 students in grades K-3 and has grown to two locations with nearly 500 students for the 2019-2020 school year. We are very proud of this growth and proud of the opportunity to offer our outstanding school as a tuition-free educational option for the families of Elyria and the surrounding communities.
ECS is a public charter school and as such we meet and exceed the requirements of the Ohio Department of Education with regard to our curricular offerings, our teaching staff and all programming. Constellation Schools: Elyria Community, is one of the very few schools in Lorain County receiving the Ohio Department of Education Momentum Award for THREE CONSECUTIVE YEARS! As a momentum award winner, Constellation Schools: Elyria Community exceeded student growth expectations in English language arts and mathematics, and earned straight A’s on all Value-Added measures of the State Report Card for the 2016, 2017, and 2018 school year.
We encourage you to learn more about Elyria Community School by calling our school office or stopping in for a tour at either our elementary or middle school locations. We can also put you in touch with parent representatives from our school who will give you the “inside scoop” on who we are. Check us out and consider becoming part of the school choice community.
