The Miamisburg City School District January Student of the Month is Kinder Elementary School second grade student Jermiyah Geiger. He was nominated by his teacher Michele Carrel. Mrs. Carrel said "I would like to nominate Jermiyah Geiger for this honor for many reasons. Jermiyah is new to Kinder this year, however he has quickly made new friends and has adapted to our way of doing things. He was very quick to learn and understand PAX (building assets) and what a PAX Leader looks like. On most days he can be found walking the halls quietly, reminding others what a PAX leader looks like and working hard in the classroom. Over remote learning Jermiyah showed a ton of perseverance. He spent most of his days logging in at daycare in a setting that was noisy and very busy. He pushed through and always had his work completed and participated in our daily meets. He would ask the adults in charge if he could move to quieter locations if it was too distracting and wasn’t afraid to call them over to assist him or talk to me if he had a question about an assignment. During remote learning there came a time when he had to stay home due to sickness, however this did not stop him from logging in every day and working hard to complete the work that was assigned. He never took the easy way out and persevered through this challenging time.

Jermiyah’s mom states outside of school he loves to play basketball and football. He enjoys spending time with his friends and making new ones. At home he loves to clean and help around the house.

Way to go Jermiyah! I am so proud of all you have accomplished this year and what a wonderful addition to Kinder you have become. Congratulations!"

The Miamisburg City School District is one of more than 700 school districts throughout Ohio celebrating January as School Board Recognition Month.

Superintendent Dr. Laura Blessing stated “Our school board members are citizen-servants who shoulder critical responsibilities and often make difficult choices for our district, all with minimal pay. Their focus is always on the future success of the children in our district. Celebrating School Board Recognition Month is one way to say thanks for all they do.”

Serving as a link between the community and classroom, school board members are elected to establish the policies that provide the framework for public schools. The Miamisburg City School District Board of Education is responsible for an annual budget of $96,750,000 million, 5,193 students, 745 employees, 1 Pre-K building, 7 elementary buildings, 1 middle school and 1 high school.

“It’s more important than ever that communities support public education so that today’s students are prepared to be productive citizens and the leaders of tomorrow,” Dr. Blessing said. “Please take a moment and tell school board members ‘thanks for caring about our children and giving so much to our community.’ Let them know we support them and that their dedicated service is recognized and truly appreciated.”

The Miamisburg Board of Education members were honored at the January 21, 2021 board meeting. Dale Toadvine was presented with a gavel as a token of appreciation for serving as Board President in 2019 and 2020. Dale has been a board member since 2008 and has served as President three times. Ann Niess will serve as Board President in 2021. Ann has been a board member since 2018.

The district task force met today to discuss the recent changes to quarantine guidance and school staff vaccine opportunities. Based on our discussions and new guidelines, our goal is to plan for a full return on Monday, February 1st, which is the first day of our second semester. As previously announced; we will operate on hybrid schedules at the high school and middle school and four day a week schedule for the elementary schools for the next three weeks beginning Monday, January 11th through Friday, January 29th. Preschool will operate as normal. Just a reminder, we will not be in school on Martin Luther King Day. Guidelines and planning for February 1st could change based on Montgomery County Public Health, Ohio Public Health, Governor's Office, and Federal Government orders or recommendations. We will re-evaluate current staff and student covid data conditions and make any changes to our goal of full return during the week of January 25th. Thank you for your support and understanding. We are looking forward to seeing all the students next week at school!
