Summary

The Miami East Local superintendent celebrated multiple student achievements — including FFA and FCCLA state and national qualifiers, a Franklin B. Walter scholarship recipient and the district's five‑star state rating — during the board's monthly 'good news' report.

The Miami East Local superintendent used the board's monthly "good news" report to highlight a string of student accomplishments and a district recognition. The superintendent named Ava Skeens as the FFA member of the month and noted several students who advanced as state or national qualifiers in FCCLA and career‑development events, including Olivia Johnson, Ali Schott, Anna Budd, Montana Powers, Sophia Harris and others.

The superintendent said the district earned a five‑star rating on the state report card, one of 47 districts in the state to receive that designation, and that a banner recognizing the achievement will be hung in the board office. The board also acknowledged Carter Lease as the district's Franklin B. Walter scholarship recipient, a county award that carries a $1,000 scholarship from the Miami County ESC.

Board members praised the range of student success and thanked coaches, advisors and families. The superintendent and members emphasized that the achievements reflect broad staff and community support rather than the work of any single person. The board did not take formal action on these reports; they were offered as informational highlights at the start of the meeting.

The meeting closed the Superintendent's report by noting recent school events such as prom and the upcoming graduation date (May 22).
