Historic Preservation

From dilapidated to functional beauty, Medina Creative Housing has completed Phase One rehab of the Weymouth Community Center. This structure served as the Weymouth School from 1925 to 1956 and a school for children with disabilities, later known as the Achievement Center, from 1960 to 1992. This special needs school is especially historic because it originally opened in 1953 seven years before Medina County citizens passed a levy for it to operate as the first county supported school for students with disabilities, and 14 years before Ohio legislators issued the mandate that counties must educate children with disabilities.
From 1992-2021 the building went into a state of disarray. Medina Creative Housing’s vision was to resurrect and reinvigorate the building’s important purpose of leading the way to opening opportunities for individuals with disabilities and assuring the legacy continues.
This project represents Medina Creative Housing’s historic preservation of the first schoolhouse for individuals with disabilities in the State of Ohio, as well as maintaining the covenant that this property would always serve individuals with disabilities and continue to be a community asset.
New Programs & Opportunities
The newly renovated building, now called Creative Living Wellness Center, is enabling Medina Creative Housing to offer a continuum of day array services and health and wellness programming.
This building hosts the Dynamic Day Program featuring enriching activities which include life skills training, art, music, nutrition, therapeutics, community integration, exercise and education programming. The Dynamic Day Program is now enrolling participants and working with families who desire a truly stimulating day program for their loved ones.
This center serves as a community asset in partnership with Weymouth Preservation Society, Heartbeats Jump Rope Team, Jacobs Ladder, and Ohio State Extension.
