Dr. Ceccarelli's talk this morning paralleled JCE's Positive Behavior Intervention and Support system of "Being responsible, Acting with kindness, Respecting others and Keeping safe (B.A.R.K.). Thanks to Mrs. Lisa Ankeney, pictured with Dr. Ceccarelli, for bringing this opportunity to our Jane Chance Bulldogs!
Eleven high school girls came to compete during the Dayton Dragons National Anthem Tryouts at the Dayton Mall in February, and they all won, together.
The grand-prize winner of the contest, which is presented by the Dayton Daily News, has been selected to open the Dragons’ 20th season. The Miamisburg High School Madrigal Singers will sing at Fifth Third Field on Opening Night on April 4, as the Dayton Dragons host the Bowling Green Hot Rods at 7 p.m.
The Madrigal Singers are a group of 11 girls from grades 10 through 12 that specializes in Renaissance a Capella singing. Lee Ann Kinner, vocal director for the group, said they are an “Elite Auditioned Choir” and perform frequently in the area at private parties, hospitals, and other events.
Kinner added that they captured a first-place award at the Music in the Park festival at King’s Island and received a “superior rating” at the Ohio Music Education Association (OMEA) event, the highest rating given. The group performed on approximately 20 Christmas dates in December.
The Dayton Daily News has served as the sponsor for all 20 years of auditions. Auditions are judged by a panel of community leaders including representatives from the Dayton Daily News, according to a Dragons press release.
Tickets can be purchased at the Dragons Box Office next to the main entry gates, online at DaytonDragons.com, by phone at (937) 228-2287 or Ticketmaster charge-by-phone at (937) 228-2323 or in person at any Miami Valley Kroger store that has a Ticketmaster outlet location.
Miamisburg is pleased to continue our partnership with Miami Valley Child Development Center (MVCDC) by offering Head Start classrooms again in the 2019-20 school year. MVCDC will continue to offer both a morning session (8:00-11:30) and an afternoon session (1:00-4:30) 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 and referral forms are available here.
Completed referral forms can be returned to Amy Dobson, Director - Elementary Education, at 540 E. Park Ave. Miamisburg, OH 45342 or via e-mail at adobson@miamisburg.k12.oh.us.
If you have questions or are interested in enrolling your child, please contact Caprice Adams at (937) 258-2470 ext.102 or by e-mail at cadams@mvcdc.org.
