Nate Artino, a 1999 graduate, named Bellevue Senior High principal
The school board unanimously hired the Olmsted Falls assistant principal to replace Gordon Moore starting Aug. 1.
Bellevue Senior High School’s next principal is one of its own. At a special meeting Monday night, the Bellevue City Schools board voted unanimously to hire Nate Artino, a 1999 BSHS graduate, effective Aug. 1, 2012.
Artino was assistant principal at Olmsted Falls High School and has a background in school counseling. Superintendent Kim Schubert told the board his strengths are working with staff and students and using data to guide decisions, including the district leadership team process and the Ohio Improvement Process. She said she expected him to build school spirit, add academic options and create more ways for the community to get involved.
Artino, who attended the meeting, called the school home and said he planned to move back to the area in July. He replaces outgoing principal Gordon Moore. The board also approved an interim contract so he could start as needed from June 1.
