'''Ginn Academy''' is an all-boys' public high school located in [Cleveland](/source/Cleveland), [Ohio](/source/Ohio). A part of the [Cleveland Metropolitan School District](/source/Cleveland_Metropolitan_School_District), Ginn began instruction in 2007 opening in the building previously occupied by Spellacy Middle School in the city's [South Collinwood](/source/Collinwood) neighborhood.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.publicschoolreview.com/margaret-spellacy-middle-school-profile|title=Margaret Spellacy Middle School (Closed 2006) Profile (2021) &#124; Cleveland, OH|website=Public School Review}}</ref> It is the only all-boys' public high school in the state. There is controversy that it operates on a private school model drawing students from outside the city.<ref>"[http://clevelandmetroschools.org/ginn Home]." Ginn Academy. Retrieved on December 31, 2015.</ref> It was founded by [Glenville High School](/source/Glenville_High_School) football and track coach [Ted Ginn Sr.](/source/Ted_Ginn_Sr.)<ref>{{cite book|last1=Benedict|first1=Jeff|last2=Keteyian|first2=Armen|title=The System: The Glory and Scandal of Big-Time College Football|url=https://archive.org/details/systemgloryscand0000bene|url-access=registration|year=2013|publisher=Knopf Doubleday|isbn=9780385536622|page=[https://archive.org/details/systemgloryscand0000bene/page/286 286]}}</ref>

Ginn Academy 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.<ref name=Turner>Turner, Karl.

[Northeast Ohio Media Group](/source/Northeast_Ohio_Media_Group) at [Cleveland.com](/source/Cleveland.com). December 27, 2007. Retrieved on December 31, 2015.</ref>

The dress code requires students to wear suits and ties, different from the normal Cleveland school district dress code guidelines.<ref name=Turner/>
