You're here because you want a school that actually moves your child forward — not one that keeps them comfortable at the level they walked in at. This one does. Ohio's own school rating system said so.

Choosing the right foundation for your child’s education is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. At OCP, our tuition-free public charter school provides a safe and supportive learning environment for students in Grades K–8, serving families in Maple Heights, Warrensville Heights, Bedford, and Garfield Heights, Ohio. We also offer an Early Entrance to Kindergarten option for children who turn 5 after the first day of school but before January 1 of the school year and pass an assessment.

We go beyond traditional academics by focusing on the "whole child." Through our unique "Success Matrix," we integrate responsibility, respect, and safety into every lesson, ensuring students grow as much socially as they do academically.

Why families choose OCP:

• High Academic Standards: A rigorous curriculum designed to bridge the gap between middle school, high school, and a four-year college degree.

• The Viking Way: A specialized focus on social-emotional learning that builds resilience, critical thinking, and lifelong confidence.

• Community-First Culture: We prioritize deep relationships between staff and families, creating a small-school feel where every student is known and valued.

• Differentiated Instruction: Our student-centered approach meets diverse learning needs through consistent routines and personalized support.
