School Overview

The John Marshall School of Engineering is a specialized high school located in the West Park neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. As part of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD), it operates under a "small school" model housed within the broader John Marshall campus. The school is designed for students with a specific interest in technical fields, offering a curriculum that emphasizes science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to prepare graduates for college programs and careers in various engineering disciplines.

The school is noted for its focus on providing a structured environment that integrates hands-on learning with core academic requirements. By participating in the district's portfolio-based approach, students at the School of Engineering have access to extracurricular activities, athletics, and collaborative opportunities with their peers in other small schools sharing the John Marshall building.
