Principal

Principal James Zoller

It's an honor and privilege to have served as the principal of Clifton Area Neighborhood School since 2019.  I'm passionate about fostering high academic achievement, as well as cultivating the social-emotional, artistic, and creative thinking skills crucial for student success in and beyond the classroom. I'm thrilled to partner with a community that shares these values.

Before joining CANS, I worked with Cincinnati Public Schools in the curriculum and instruction department, focusing on strengthening classroom practices through data analysis and professional development. My experience also includes four years as an administrator in the Lakota Local School District and nine years as a classroom teacher with Wyoming City Schools. I hold a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Virginia and a Master of Education from Xavier University.

Our school community is vibrant and welcoming! We look forward to collaborating closely with our families, community members, and partners as we continue to build on CANS's successes together.

Best,
James Zoller
Principal, Clifton Area Neighborhood School
