LMHS cross country stars Grace Biddle and Mackenzie Evans have qualified for the OHSAA State Tournament at Memorial Park and Fortress Obetz in Obetz on Saturday, November 5. The girl's D-I race is slated to start at 3:45 PM. Grace advances with an impressive fourth place finish at Troy last weekend in the Regional Tournament. The four-time all-conference star logged a time of 18:31.10 in the 5000 meter finals, which trailed Efa Paschka of Mason (18:04.10), Abby Drosdak of Northmont (18:17.00) and Evelyn Prodoehl or Lakota West.

Last week, the Little Miami Chorale was invited as a guest choir to perform in a concert hosted by the Miami University Chamber Singers and Choraliers. This was the first appearance of this kind since the fall of 2019, and the LM Chorale was thrilled to be a part of it. This tiny, mighty ensemble brought down the house with their performance. What is even more extraordinary is that only 14 of the young women in the chorale were able to participate in this concert.

LM Choir Director, Sarah Baker shares, “To say that I am proud is an understatement, for sure!” Way to go LM Chorale!

The winter weather season is fast approaching, so the time to be prepared is NOW! If a delay due to inclement weather is necessary, Little Miami will make an announcement via the SwiftK12 notification system (LM phone calls, emails & text messages), post on LM social media & website, and report delays/closures to local media stations.

LM utilizes 90-minute delays when weather warrants a delay and not a full school closure. Please save the graphic below for your use on days we are on a delay! Preparedness tip: print and tape the graphic to your refrigerator for convenience!

DID YOU KNOW? By the age of three, a child’s brain is already 80% developed, and, by the time a child enters kindergarten, they must already know thousands of words in order to succeed in the classroom. Reading aloud to a child and giving them access to books is the best way to ensure they are prepared to enter kindergarten.

The Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library wants to start a new chapter in early childhood literacy throughout Ohio by providing families with books. With the goal of preparing students entering Kindergarten for success in the classroom, the Imagination Library program will send a customized book to your child each month from birth until age five. Sign up is easy and FREE! Give your Panther the gift of reading & enroll today.
