About Willoughby-Eastlake City Schools
Willoughby-Eastlake enters 2026–27 with five K–5 elementary schools, three grades 6–8 middle schools, and North and South high schools. Street address determines the middle and high school path. Career-technical education is also in transition: the district is moving from Excel TECC toward the Western Lake County Compact, with in-district programs housed at the Northern Career Institute campuses and Eastlake Middle School.
The School of Innovation is a separate grades 3–8 STEM route. New students enter only in third grade, after gifted identification and a lottery, and the incoming class is capped at seventy-five.
The November 2026 earned-income-tax vote may reshape the district for 2027–28. If it fails, the board’s contingency plan calls for one high school, one districtwide middle school, and fewer elementary buildings. Until the result is known, families enroll under the current two-high-school map.
