Welcome Message from Principal
I am honored to serve as the Principal at North Royalton High School. Our staff is here to create the best environment possible to engage our students in high-quality instruction and offer exceptional extracurricular opportunities. Our teachers, school counselors, administrators, and support staff are dedicated to preparing every student for life beyond high school. North Royalton High School has a long-standing tradition of excellence in academics, athletics, the arts, and student organizations, made possible by the support of the North Royalton and Broadview Heights communities.
We are excited to welcome all students and families to the high school. Our staff works hard to build positive relationships with students to allow all learners to be inspired and empowered. Never hesitate to contact your student's teachers, school counselor, or the administration if you have any questions or if we can be of any help. Together, we can create a wonderful experience for students to achieve their goals.
The first day of school for students is Wednesday, August 20, 2025.
Go Bears!
