Board President, Dale Toadvine, announced today that the Miamisburg City Schools Board of Education will approve a contract for Dr. Laura L. Blessing of Richmond, Indiana as the next Superintendent of the district at its regular meeting on May 21, 2020. Dr. Blessing will replace Dr. David Vail who is retiring at the end of July.

Beginning in late January, the Board conducted an extensive search and review of potential candidates assisted by the Montgomery County Educational Service Center and K-12 Business Consulting. The process included meetings with stakeholders to develop a search profile of the district followed by interviews and extensive background checks on all candidates. The process culminated this past Monday with final interviews and meetings with community and staff members.

The Board was impressed with Dr. Blessing’s focus on students, demonstrated evidence of collaboration with both staff and other stakeholders, history of community involvement, and her vision for Miamisburg City Schools. Dr. Blessing is looking forward to becoming a Miamisburg resident and an integral part of the community.

Blessing has served for the past seven years as the Superintendent of the Northeastern Wayne Schools in Fountain City, Indiana. Prior to that, she had been a curriculum director, elementary principal, middle school assistant principal, and an elementary teacher.

“The Board was really impressed with the credentials of all of the applicants, and especially those of the finalists,” Toadvine said. “Any of them would have been an outstanding Superintendent in our district. However, we just felt that Dr. Blessing was the best fit for Miamisburg.”

Welcome, Dr. Blessing to Miamisburg!

Miamisburg is pleased to continue our partnership with Miami Valley Child Development Center (MVCDC) by offering Head Start classrooms again in the 2020-21 school year. MVCDC will continue to offer sessions with transportation to and from the school for eligible children. Because the program is federally funded, 90% of the families enrolled must meet the poverty guidelines for a family of four. However, some over-income children will be accepted based on need. Income eligibility information is available here.

A Head Start pre-registration application is used to determine possible eligibility for Head Start and Early Head Start programs. Families interested in enrolling should complete the pre-registration application and will be contacted by the agency with additional information. Families can also contact Caprice Adams at (937) 258-2470 ext.102 or by e-mail at cadams@mvcdc.org for more information.
