Ever since Whitner and now Teddy shocked everyone by getting drafted in the top ten I keep hoping to read an article about the Ginn Academy. Hopefully Teddy manages to make plenty of money so that he has plenty to spare for his dad.

Glenville is having a good season again, right now they are at #9 in their region (top 8 get in the playoffs) and they'll probably need some help to get in because of the weakness of their league schedule, but I think they can make some noise if they can eek in...I think they have played the closes game Cincy St. X has had this year (still a 15 point win for St X :biggrin:)

Whatever happened to . . . : Ginn Academy outgrows its space
Cleveland district's other single-gender schools near enrollment targets Friday, December 28, 2007
Ginn Academy outgrows space
Cleveland district's other single-gender schools near enrollment targets
MARVIN FONGTHE PLAIN DEALER

Darryl Edwards, 15, works during a 10th-grade geometry class at Ginn Academy in Cleveland. Boys from all over the district attend the academy, which has a waiting list of students interested in enrolling for next year.

Quinton Norman, 15, is the picture of concentration during an English class at Ginn Academy in Cleveland. "Here, it's all teamwork," said Principal Sheree Ray. "We're giving our all to the students."

Ginn Academy students, dressed in their uniform red blazers, wait in line to buy lunch. Academy director Ted Ginn Sr. says the young men will succeed because that's what's expected of them. "The kids have bought into it," he said of the school. "I don't know if everybody else has, but the kids have."

How are things going at the Cleveland School District's new single-gender academies?

When four elementary schools (two for boys and two for girls) and Ginn Academy for high school boys opened this fall, only Ginn Academy had reached its enrollment target.

Now, one of the elementaries is slightly over its goal of 120 students, in kindergarten through grade two. And the others aren't that far behind, with enrollments of 97, 102 and 105.

At Ginn Academy, named after Glenville High football and track coach Ted Ginn Sr., more than 150 ninth- and 10th-graders make a statement in their required uniforms: red blazers, white shirts, black pants, black leather shoes, striped ties and black book bags, adorned with the school logo.

It's a look that freshman Bashir Muhammad, 15, doesn't mind. "I like feeling professional," he said.

Ginn Academy already has outgrown its space on the first floor of the former Health Careers School and will need a bigger location next fall when the new freshmen enter.

Though a fair number of Ginn students are in foster homes or familiar with the juvenile justice system, many others simply need extra academic and emotional attention, said Principal Sheree Ray.

"With the lack of male role models, I felt that this would be a good school," said math teacher Terrell Reddix, one of three black men in a teaching staff of nine. "I don't think too many people thought we were going to succeed. But we're going to be around for a long time."
