The 14-year-old student was killed after the shooting rampage in which two teachers were shot, CNN affiliate WOIO reported.
WOIO didn't say whether police shot him or he killed himself.
At least two people and perhaps as many as four were wounded at SuccessTech Academy, a high school in downtown Cleveland, according to reports.
Two students were taken to hospitals, said Andrea Jackson, press secretary for Cleveland's mayor. One was taken out of the school on a stretcher but was conscious.
Cleveland fire, police and EMS are at the scene, as is Mayor Frank Jackson.
CNN affiliate WKYC reported four were wounded.
The academy describes itself on its Web site as a "small, nontraditional high school that provides a learning environment in which all student believe in their ability to succeed."
It adds that the curriculum is "problem-based" and "infused" with technology.

I want to know why. what were his/her motives?
what on earth do they mean by "problem-based" do they mean it's a school full of troubled teenagers, if so then oh boy this was a inevitable scence, it was gonna happen sooner or later anyway.
nontraditional??????? hehe, well i guess this is what they get for being nontraditional, probably one of those schools that say children must be disciplined with rewards and cakes
problem-based is a type of curriculum where students are given problems to solve with groups that encourage problem solving and communication. It's actually a pretty interesting model; here's some more info on it from wiki. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem-based_learning
perhaps we all should be busy now trying to treat each other with respect rather than trying accuse gun owners or the nra or someone else; but it's much easier to have others change than for us to change.
