On September 2nd, Fortis College- Cuyahoga Falls celebrated its 60th Anniversary with an event held down at the Cuyahoga Falls Riverfront Pavilion!

It was a wonderful evening where we celebrated graduates, premier employers, and some of Fortis' most tenured employees! We even were able to honor a very special guest, Mayor Don Walters, with a "Distinguished Alumni" award.

We want to say "Thank you" to all who have supported our college over the years and to the amazing students and graduates who have passed through our classrooms!

This milestone would not have been possible without the support of our employees, graduates, and community partnerships.

60 Years of Excellence...One Incredible Journey
