On Tuesday, October 28, 2025, the Milford Board of Education selected six finalists for the superintendent position based on the recommendation of the Hamilton County Educational Service Center (HCESC). The candidates were identified through a comprehensive process guided by the leadership profile developed from staff and community feedback sessions facilitated by HCESC.

The first round of interviews will take place on November 12, conducted by a panel of Milford community members, staff, and stakeholder representatives. Second-round interviews with the Board will follow on November 19 and 20. After these rounds, the candidate pool will be narrowed to a small group of finalists who will advance to the final stage of the process—a “Meet the Candidates Night” on December 9, open to all staff and community members.

Milford Six Finalists Selected  (1)
⚠️ These students were so good, we’re providing a little caution about how scary good this learning was! The first few photos are blurred for our queasier families, but the results were too impressive not to share!

Students in Mrs. Moorehead’s and Mr. Rohlfs’ Honors Anatomy & Physiology classes at Milford High School created realistic “fake wounds” as part of their study of the integumentary system. Using everyday materials like cocoa powder, petroleum jelly, and even popsicle sticks for that extra “bone” effect, students explored the layers of the skin, classified types of burns, and learned about the body’s healing process, including the importance of inflammation in recovery.

Board of Education Special Meeting - October 28
Earlier this month, Mr. Lutz’s kindergarten class at Meadowview went on a (not-so) treacherous leaf hunt through the jungle (the outdoor trail)! Students collected colorful leaves, discussed why some were crisp while others stayed soft, and wrapped up the adventure by cataloging their finds on a worksheet. Nature made for the perfect classroom!

Things really heated up yesterday at Pattison Park-1 in the best way possible!

Our friends from the City of Milford Fire & EMS stopped by to give students an up-close look at their life-saving gear and a special tour of their fire trucks and ambulances. Students got to climb aboard, explore the tools of the trade, and even practice staying low and crawling under the smoke like real firefighters!

We are so thankful for our local Fire & EMS team for keeping our community safe and teaching our youngest learners!

Talk about going the extra mile! During School Bus Safety Week, we’re sending a big thank-you to the amazing bus drivers who keep students safe on every ride. 🚌

A friendly bus safety tip to all of our drivers out there: When those red lights are flashing and the stop arm swings out, it’s everyone’s cue to stop. Whether you’re behind the bus or coming from the opposite direction, please wait until the stop sign has fully retracted before driving again to help keep every child safe.

These Eagles are the sweetest batch around! 🍪

This month, we’re recognizing two incredible Eagles who make Pattison Elementary soar — Candice Spinelli and Tammy Kreyenhagen!

Candice has been a steady source of support and encouragement for her colleagues, especially new teachers. From meeting outside school hours to plan lessons to answering late-night questions about the Wonders program, she leads with kindness, patience, and dedication.

Tammy shines as a true role model throughout the school — always smiling, offering words of encouragement, and bringing calm care to every situation. She embodies the very best of our Portrait of an Eagle each and every day.

A big thank you to Crumbl Cookies for sponsoring our Employee of the Month program with a cookie and gift card for each honoree!

After reading How to Catch a Monster, students brought their own ferocious creations to life using Play-Doh, fangs, and plenty of googly eyes. Talk about monstrously good behavior!

Things are taking off in the new Flight and Electrons class at Milford Middle School!

Students are diving into the world of astronaut nutrition through Project Lead The Way’s Flight and Space unit. They learned how astronauts eat, how food is dehydrated for space missions, and how it is rehydrated once on board.

Just recently, these 7th graders in Tammy Gallagher's class were, putting their knowledge to the test with a fun “Space Pudding” lab, creating a sweet treat just like astronauts would in orbit!

We’re loving how our Milford High School parking lot is looking right now! With no school today, it’s the perfect time to admire the incredible murals our MHS seniors created on their parking spots.

This is the first year seniors have been able to paint their spots, and they did not disappoint! We can’t wait to see what future classes add to the lot. Which one’s your favorite?

Earlier this month, Milford High School welcomed our German American Partnership Program (GAPP) exchange partners from Königswinter, Germany! 🇩🇪

Thirteen students and their teachers, Dennis Kempf and Martina Heidel, are spending two weeks learning, exploring, and connecting with their Milford host families. During their stay, they’ve been getting a true taste of American high school life, from attending classes to celebrating Homecoming and joining the fun at our parade!

The GAPP program has brought students together across continents for decades, creating opportunities to learn, travel, and share new experiences. As our German friends finish up their visit, we’re proud Milford is part of their American adventure.

Spooky season has officially arrived!

Mrs. Chitwood’s class is feeling the Halloween spirit in full force. This week, students put their creativity to the test by writing their own spooky stories and reading them aloud in a classroom decorated with webs, vines, and a flickering mini “campfire.” It was the perfect setting for a chillingly fun time! 🎃👻

Talk about a great start!

To celebrate an amazing first quarter with their new principal, Seipelt staff "jean-uinely" made sure Principal Yeager felt part of the team by gifting him his very own Seipelt “jean jacket” to match the staff.

Along with the jacket, students shared heartfelt notes and goodies to thank him for making the start of the school year so great. Looks like he’s officially fitting in just right!
