Oberlin's Board has articulated the priorities of a multicultural and highly rigorous curriculum. As a result, the entire district has implemented the International Baccalaureate Program. Benefiting from continuous community support, the district enjoys a strong and stable financial base. Oberlin was one of the first districts in the state to pass a school income tax. The Oberlin School District enjoys a significant partnership with Oberlin College and the City of Oberlin.
