Ginn Academy

Ginn Academy is an all-boys' public high school in Cleveland, Ohio. A part of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, it is the only all-boys' public high school in the state.[1] It was founded by football and track coach Ted Ginn, Sr..[2]

It was designed for boys requiring additional help in academics and services, and it was scheduled to have a school day longer than that of most district high schools. The school, in its opening year, had 100 slots for first year students (freshmen) and 50 second year students (sophomores). As of December 2007 80 students had applied.[3]

The dress code requires students to wear suits and ties, different from the normal Cleveland school district dress code guidelines.[3]
