The Cleveland Council of Independent Schools (CCIS) is a consortium of independent schools in Northeast Ohio, United States.^[1]

CCIS was incorporated in 1967^[2] after several years of periodic meetings of the trustees and heads of four east side independent schools: Hathaway Brown, Hawken, Laurel and University School. As of 2022^[update], the council now has 20 member schools, including coed and single-sex schools, Montessori schools, and boarding schools.^[2][3] Its mission statement is: "CCIS serves member schools and their constituents by promoting, supporting, and enhancing the value of independent education in Northeast Ohio through the facilitation of meaningful collaboration."^[2]
