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.

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!

That’s exactly what Ms. Hinners’ kindergarteners did after reaching their first-quarter PBIS goal!
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!

Nearly 60 Milford retirees and family members joined us this weekend for a first look inside the new Milford Middle School! Some even took a nostalgic stroll through the old Miami Elementary to relive a few favorite memories.

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!






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.







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! 🎃👻









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!


Fall Break begins on Friday, October 10, which is a Teacher Work Day across the District. Students will return to school on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. Enjoy this beautiful change in the weather!

Students at Seipelt Elementary School celebrated reaching their PBIS goal with a mini field day! To mark the achievement, Miami Township Police and Fire stopped by to talk with students, show off their gear, and join in on the fun and games.








The Milford Middle School went retro today, rocking poodle skirts, leather jackets, and 1950s flair! Our 7th graders donned their best Greaser or Soc looks for the annual “Outsiders Day,” where literature met school spirit.
As part of their novel study of The Outsiders, students celebrated the story’s timeless themes by stepping into the shoes of their favorite characters. It was a fun reminder for everyone that it’s cool to be kind and to “stay gold.”



Last week, students gathered data through a fun taste test where they got to try each type of apple and record which color they thought tasted the best.








ICYMI:
These past few weeks, some of our Milford Schools wrapped up another round of Walkathons and fundraisers — and our students showed up in full force! Thanks to their hard work and the incredible support of our community, every school hit its donation milestone! To celebrate their success, students danced in costumes, ran through bursts of color, and enjoyed fun outdoor activities — making every moment count.









Kindness is in full swing at Pattison Elementary! Our students are collecting socks throughout Sock-tober to help people in need, and our kindergarteners are leading the way with big hearts and even bigger smiles!
Keep those donations coming to help keep feet warm and snug as the weather turns cold.
Way to go, Pattison!
Students from Milford High School visited Impacting Tomorrow to lend a helping hand . They were sorting, hanging, and organizing clothing donations that will go to families in need.
Way to go, Eagles, for showing what it means to serve with heart and purpose!
