‘A vibrant part of the community.’ New schools coming to Kenmore seen as potentially transformative
Lauren Presutti knows there are kids in Kenmore. She just doesn’t often see them. When two new Akron Public Schools buildings open in the neighborhood in August 2028, just more than a block from Kenmore Boulevard, she expects that to change. “It’ll bring, just, life into the neighborhood,” said Presutti, a 20-year Kenmore resident. “When APS decided to take away Kenmore High School, it really hit the community hard.”
