Bear Families,

I am extremely grateful and humbled by the opportunity to lead our school community and serve North Royalton and Broadview Heights.  Please never hesitate to call me if you have a question, want a better understanding of how we operate, or simply want to share the positive impact your child’s teacher is having on his or her growth.  Together, I look forward to listening, learning, and building positive relationships with all of you.

The North Royalton City Schools launched the Portrait of a Bear at the beginning of the 2026-2027 school year. It is a more well-rounded picture of student success. Developed through collaboration with students, staff, families, and community members, the Portrait of a Bear reflects the future-ready skills our students will need to enter the world of tomorrow.

Through that work, we reaffirmed what we believe.  We believe: 

1. students come first. 

2. all students have the potential to achieve and grow.

3. positive relationships foster belonging and learning throughout our community.

4. reflection, personalization, and innovation are essential to meaningful learning.

5. mindfulness, kindness, integrity, and resilience are the values that guide our actions.

6. the future demands the capacity to evolve.

Our beliefs provide the foundation for our vision: North Royalton City Schools will be a learning community where our students are valued, supported, and prepared for their future in a rapidly changing world. 

That vision, in turn, drives our mission: We inspire and empower every learner to become future-ready.

Our Portrait of a Bear brings our vision and mission to life through six competencies: Adaptability, Communication, Critical Thinking, Empathy, Leadership, and Learner’s Mindset. These competencies represent the skills we want our students to develop as they grow through their educational journey. They will help students thrive throughout their PreK-12 experience and beyond.

Go Bears!

Thank you, 
Jeffrey Cicerchi
