The district serves students in preschool through 12th grade living in Ravenna and Ravenna Township, and small portions of Shalersville and Charlestown townships. Schools. The previous district organization was adopted in February 1997 and implemented at the beginning of the 1997–98 school year. Prior to 1997, students in grades K–5 attended one of five neighborhood elementary schools, grades 6–8 were at Brown Middle School, and grades 9–12 at Ravenna High School. The changes in 1997 moved  all kindergarten students to West Park Elementary School, and all fifth and sixth grade students to Rausch Intermediate School, adjacent to Brown Middle School, which became a school for grades seven and eight. Students who had previously attended West Park were split between Carlin and West Main Elementary Schools. This organization stayed in place until 2008 when Rausch Intermediate closed, necessitating the return of students in grade five to their neighborhood elementary school and grade six to Brown Middle School. When Tappan Elementary closed in 2013, students were sent to one of the three remaining elementary schools with most being  assigned to West Main. The current district organization, which centralizes each grade level at a specific building rather than have neighborhood elementary schools, was implemented beginning in the 2020–21 school year. Carlin Elementary School closed at the end of the 2019–20 school year, and all elementary buildings were repurposed. The Ravenna Preschool was moved to the former Carlin Elementary School, along with some of the district offices.
