Last Board Update

Good Evening:

Hope everyone had a great Easter with their family and friends. As many of you may be aware as of March 28th I have resigned from the North Royalton School Board in order to accept an appointment by the North Royalton City Council to serve out the balance of the late Don Willey’s term of office as the Ward 3 Councilman. On March 29th I was sworn into office as the new Councilman for Ward 3. This will be my last board update. I will miss our amazing students, teachers, administrators, and parents who make the North Royalton City School District such a great place to be! I thank you all for what you do to make a difference. I plan to continue to be involved in supporting our school district in other ways as a member of city council and as a proud NRHS Alumnus. I leave the School Board feeling that the North Royalton City School District is headed in a positive direction. Again thank you for the opportunity to serve you all and the over 4,700 students in the North Royalton City School District. I look forward to continuing to serve our community on the North Royalton City Council. If you are a Ward 3 Resident or just enjoyed my e-mail updates please e-mail me back if you would like to continue to receive my updates but as North Royalton City Councilman for Ward 3.

With the economy recovering very slowly, the need to help these families and students in our community who are struggling to get the necessary supplies they need for going back to school is very much needed. The community’s generosity and support of this program makes me so proud to live here in North Royalton!”, said Langshaw.
