North Royalton Middle School Honors Society students were back at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank on February 21 — and their impact was incredible! During this visit, students emptied 12 pallets of boxed products and packed 480 cartons of non-perishable food for families in need. Each carton included essentials such as pasta, canned ground beef, beans, fruit, vegetables, and cereal — totaling an impressive 14,400 pounds of food distributed to support our community. These students did fantastic work and continue to show what leadership and service look like in action.
The Honors Society still has two more volunteer dates this year: March 7 and March 21. We are so proud of their ongoing commitment to making a difference!

What a wonderful turnout for the Bears Family Resource Group Resource Fair today at North Royalton Elementary School
The event connected families with a wide range of community providers offering services and programs such as summer camps, adapted sports opportunities, music therapy, and other community-based resources. Dozens of organizations participated, including the Cleveland Metroparks and the Cuyahoga County Board of Developmental Disabilities, along with many additional local and regional partners.
In addition to the provider fair, the day featured several interactive and inclusive activities for students of all ages. The North Royalton High School basketball team hosted an adapted basketball clinic for school-age students, followed by an adapted soccer clinic led by Coach Lauren from Super Soccer Stars for children ages 1.5 to 8.
The afternoon programming included a performance by Project 16 Dance Studio, showcasing the dancers’ dedication and hard work, and concluded with a music therapy demonstration led by Izzy Donovan of Music Izz Groovy.
The event provided families, students, and community members with meaningful opportunities to learn about inclusive programs and supports available in the area, while fostering connections between families and organizations committed to accessibility, inclusion, and community engagement.
