Granville provides an excellent education in a beautiful small college town (Denison University). Although this is a public school it is a prep school with courses aimed at achieving success in college. The school offers standard as well as AP classes and has agreements with Denison University, Kenyon college, Central Ohio Technical College and Granville Studio of Visual Arts to diversify class offerings and allow students the opportunity to obtain college credits in high school. Students need to work for their grades but are rewarded with high ACT/SAT test scores and acceptance into premier colleges and universities. Granville is well rounded - offering sports, clubs, music, drama and art programs.

The schools are located in Granville Ohio, about 30 minutes east of Columbus Ohio. The town is small but very active giving residents things to participate in for a wide range of interests. The town is clean, safe and friendly. It is simply a great place to live. Close Quote

Granville is a wonderful school to attend. I grew up in the Granville schools for my entire education, and I would certainly move back to raise a family there. They truly stress educational excellence, which can sometimes cause those with learning disabilities to be marginalized. However, for high-achieving students and those looking to pursue college degrees, this school is top notch. Close Quote
