Independent & Nonsectarian Schools in Strongsville, Brecksville, Berea & North Royalton

4 independent & nonsectarian schools in Strongsville, Brecksville, Berea & North Royalton; 2 are chartered and can take EdChoice (up to $6,166 K-8 and $8,408 9-12 in 2026-27). Southwest Cuyahoga's growing suburbs, with a large interparochial elementary in Strongsville, parish schools and special-education campuses in Berea and Broadview Heights.

About these records. Each school combines the federal Private School Survey (NCES 2023-24, or 2021-22 where a school skipped the latest round) with Ohio's state school directory (OEDS) and DEW's 2026-27 list of non-chartered schools, both pulled October 28, 2026. "Chartered" means OEDS lists the school as a chartered nonpublic school, the only kind that can take Cleveland Scholarship or EdChoice students; schools also register each year as providers, so confirm with the school. Neither agency collects tuition.

Funding note: State scholarships are not reserved for religious schools; a chartered independent school can take them, though tuition at the larger day schools runs well above the award.
