Not everything you read on social media is true, but we heard a rumor that we confirmed. We even got pictures! The West Carrollton Fire Department came out to the Middle School football team practice to provide some cooling relief. It also gave the athletes an opportunity to learn how to play in the rain. The best part is it was fun for everyone!

Nastassia Person is excited to be a Pirate! She is the new Assistant Principal at the Intermediate School. She is enjoying meeting the students, staff and families. This is her 10th year working in education and we are happy she is bringing her experience to the Pirates!
We now know that the Miamisburg Schools emergency alert call system reaches out to student emergency contacts, some of whom are from West Carrollton. The message that was sent by Miamisburg did not clarify what district was sending the message. We want to assure everyone that both Miamisburg and West Carrollton students are safe.
We have been made aware that Miamisburg schools are on lockdown. We don't know why, but some families from West Carrollton have been receiving a message intended for Miamisburg families that transportation will be delayed due to the lockdown. We want to assure West Carrollton School District families that this is NOT happening in West Carrollton. Our students are safe and will be arriving at bus stops at the regular time.
There are new Pirates on board! Human Resources Director, Devon Berry, and his Assistant, Lisa Green, are pictured in front of the group of new faces who will soon be in classes and/or providing services to students. Welcome!
Every bus is cleaned inside and out. Mechanics service each bus to make sure it is in safe working order. These are things that happen all year long, including the summer! If you're interested in joining the transportation team, call 937-859-5121, ext. 7.
The last day of school was fun for staff and students! Staff did a cook out and students got to enjoy hot dogs! Kona Ice provided a sweet treat after lunch.

What's happening behind the scenes at the future West Carrollton Elementary School? Walls are going up, but there's still a lot of work to be done. The building will house students in grades two through four and is scheduled to open for the 2025-26 school year. The Elementary School is one of two buildings in Phase II of the building project. The other is the West Carrollton Middle/High School which is scheduled to open for the 2026-27 school year. Phase I was construction of the West Carrollton Early Childhood Center that houses preschool through first grade students and West Carrollton Intermediate School that houses fifth and sixth grade students.
District Treasurer, Ryan Slone, swore in new School Board member, Angie Shockley, prior to the beginning of the June 12, 2024 School Board member. Shockley has been a long-time resident and was involved in many school activities when her son attended West Carrollton Schools. Her involvement continued even after his graduation, and she is excited to support the district as a School Board member.
