SPIRE Academy is where student-athletes come to learn, compete, and lead.

Located on a world-class, 800-acre campus in Northeast Ohio, SPIRE is an international boarding and day school for grades 9–12 and post-grad students. With over 850,000 square feet of indoor facilities and outdoor stadiums that rival collegiate programs, SPIRE offers a one-of-a-kind environment where academics and athletics go hand-in-hand.

Our flexible, NCAA-accredited academic model supports elite training and travel schedules. Students earn competitive GPAs, succeed in AP courses, and matriculate to top colleges with over $5.8M in scholarships awarded since 2021. Faculty with real-world experience help students thrive across disciplines.

Athletically, SPIRE delivers high-performance training led by professionals with international experience across basketball, soccer, track and field, swimming, wrestling, and more. Programs are built around resilience, mindset, and preparation for the next level—college or pro. Our model mirrors elite European academies with year-round competition and scouting exposure.

Students live in a structured, supportive residential community with weekend activities, life skills programming, and a diverse student body representing 40+ countries.

With recent leadership hires from the NBA, NFL, and UFC—and the addition of legendary coach Kevin Boyle—SPIRE is entering a new era of growth. We're not just building champions, we're building futures.
