Lima City Schools

The neighborhood elementary schools and middle schools offer many opportunities for students. Orchestra starts in the fourth grade and there are many music groups available to even the youngest of students. Our students are involved in K-Kids and Builders Clubs and community service projects. A Careers course at West Middle School gets students thinking about careers and high school course options. All of the schools have programs and special events to bring families into the buildings to better build relationships with staff. Mentors from the community are also involved with many of our schools. Our Enrichment Program begins in the third grade and includes additional hands-on projects for gifted students. Students are tested for the program in the second grade. The program goes through middle school. Magnet Schools
