Montgomery County Ohio College Promise was founded in 2010 with the goal of providing a life-changing opportunity for 500 students within the community over a 10-year period. Students are selected during their eighth-grade year. Each student is supported during high school by a caring adult mentor who meets with them on a weekly basis at their high school and through programming offered by the College Promise Program.

The selected students, upon the successful completion of high school and meeting the entrance requirements of the partner college or university, are awarded scholarships that allow them to attend college at little to no cost to them or their families. Partner colleges and universities include: Central State University, Denison University, Kettering College, Miami University, Miami University Regionals, Ohio Northern University, Ohio University, Sinclair Community College, University of Dayton, Wittenberg University, Wright State University, and Xavier University.

The Miamisburg City School District was privileged to have three students from the Miamisburg Middle School selected for this program. Ahmed Azzam, Crystal Barraclough, and Cadence Hackworth were chosen from our district to receive this incredible opportunity.

The Miamisburg City School District February Student of the Month is Mound Elementary School third grade student Elijah Wineberg. He was nominated by his teachers Carrie Brown and Megan Ferguson. They said "We would like to nominate Elijah Wineberg for the District Student of the Month. Elijah exemplifies the Mound Elementary positive behavior goals in all aspects of his day. He is respectful to all individuals that he comes into contact with during the school day. All of the students in the classroom as well as all of the adults in the building would agree that they can count on Elijah to be kind, caring, and helpful.

Elijah demonstrates his responsibility on a daily basis. He sets high expectations for himself both at school and at home. During remote learning, Elijah attended EVERY google meet and completed EVERY assignment. In the classroom, he is always prepared for the day and ensures he is actively engaged.

Elijah is ready to learn in all subjects. He puts forth his best effort on every assignment. If he is unsure of something, he will reach out for extra assistance. At the beginning of the school year, he set a goal for himself in mathematics on a program called XtraMath. He has surpassed these goals by mastering his addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts.

Outside of school, Elijah plays club soccer through Metro FC and wrestles at Prodigy Wrestling Academy. He competed on the ODP training team for soccer and has been a youth wrestling state qualifier the past two years. His interests include math, constructing, organizing, and problem-solving. One of his favorite activities is recycling. His mother mentioned that he will walk or bike with his dad around the neighborhood collecting cans.

If you spent the day with Elijah, you would see a child who truly loves learning and is excited about his education. He is a model Gopher here at Mound Elementary. Miamisburg City Schools are lucky to have a student like Elijah Wineberg in the district."

Miamisburg City Schools receive Federal allocations through Title I-A: Improving Basic Programs; Title II-A: Improving Teacher Quality; Title III-LEP: English Learners; and Special Education Part–B IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) funds based on the Federal December Count of Students with Disabilities. Fiscal Year 2021, the district received Title I-A funds in the amount of $1,496,192.36; Title II-A funds in the amount of $242,285.46; Title III funds in the amount of $27,472.11; Title IV-A funds in the amount of $124,280.12: ECSE (Preschool) funding in the amount of $47,772.20 and Special Education funds in the amount of $1,592,708.38. For many years the federal funds have been primarily used to employ staff, fund staff development and support the purchase of supplies used by the students and staff in federal programs. Bishop Leibold shares Part-B IDEA funding, Title II-A and Title IV-A funding in the amount of $61,419.42 to assist with the cost of services to students eligible for these federal programs. In the past, their funds have supported the employment of staff, professional development and supplies for students. A public school district is required to spend a proportionate amount of IDEA Part B, Title I-A, Title II-A and Title IV-A monies to serve eligible children who are placed by their parents in nonpublic elementary or secondary schools that are located within the public schools geographic boundaries. The nonpublic school may be either a recognized chartered nonpublic school or a recognized non chartered, nonpublic school. Miamisburg also receives a Federal Preschool Grant which is used to help with the cost of educating preschool students ages 3-5 with special needs. This year the Early Childhood Grant award is $47,772.20 and is used to support the employment of a preschool teacher. Each year the district receives the federal allocations in late spring. Budgeting then takes place in June. Public input is welcome. A public hearing to obtain public input will be held on April 15, 2021 at 5:30 p.m. at the Miamisburg Civic Center, 10 North First Street, Miamisburg, Ohio 45342. If you are unable to attend the public hearing, you are welcome to contact Katy Lucas, Director of Student Services or Stacie Moore, Director of Secondary Curriculum 866-3381 to give your input. Anyone giving input will receive written or verbal response as to the final disposition of these funds.
