Welcome to a new school year at Lorain County JVS! We’re excited to partner with you on a journey that combines academic excellence with hands-on training in high-demand fields. Whether your goal is to enter the workforce, continue your education, or explore both, your time at JVS will build the skills and confidence needed to succeed in Ohio’s rapidly evolving economy.

As workforce needs continue to grow across the state, career-technical education is more important than ever. Through strong industry partnerships and real-world learning experiences, our students earn credentials, gain meaningful workplace exposure, and contribute to Ohio’s talent pipeline from day one.

To our students: this is your opportunity to explore your interests, grow your abilities, and prepare for a future full of possibility. To our families: thank you for trusting us with your student’s education—we’re committed to providing a safe, supportive, and career-focused environment every step of the way.

Let’s make it a great year—together.
