EHOVE Career Center is a public vocational school in Milan, Ohio. EHOVE is an acronym that stands for Erie Huron Ottawa Vocational Education. While Erie, Huron and Ottawa counties are the primary covered counties in the district, the school also serves students in the nearby Lorain and Sandusky counties.

Altogether the school has an enrollment of about 800 high school junior and seniors from about 16 different associate school districts. Upon graduation students earn a certificate from EHOVE, along with a high school diploma from their home high school.

History

Back in the 1960's with the completion of the Ohio Turnpike and other local growths in the economy and infrastructure, Ohio government officials began to consider the creation of a vocational school that could provide worker training through the public school system. In 1965 the Erie Huron Ottawa Vocational Board (EHOVE) was formed to plan the school in the Erie and Huron County area. Much of the building funds were matched with public funding measures passed with the help of Ohio's 61st and 63rd Governor James A. Rhodes.[1]

The school opened its doors in the fall of 1968.
