The Mt. Healthy City School District recently held a touching and memorable summer graduation ceremony. This special event honored students who dedicated their summer to earning the credits they needed to graduate, with some even completing their requirements early. The ceremony was filled with hugs and tears from students, staff, and families, marking the personal journey that brought everyone to this moment. Superintendent Dr. Valerie Hawkins opened the ceremony with a moving speech, reflecting on the significance of the occasion. "Summer Graduation is one of my favorite events of the year," Dr. Hawkins began. "Some of the students in the front row weren’t sure if they would be here today, and the people in the audience have spent many nights working with you, encouraging you, wanting you to reach your potential. Summer graduation highlights all the hard work and perseverance you have exhibited, as well as the support from those around you to reach this goal. You didn’t give up; you continued to work hard so that you could be with us today. You have completed this important step towards your success; don’t let any obstacle stop you from reaching your goals and full potential." The event demonstrated the collaborative effort of the Mt. Healthy community. Staff members, families, and loved ones played vital roles in supporting the graduates, ensuring they had the encouragement and resources necessary to achieve this milestone. The pride and joy on the faces of everyone present were clear. Principal Amy Criswell provided the closing words, encapsulating the spirit of the occasion. "The tassel moved from right to left is a symbolic gesture indicating that you have passed through a significant stage of your life and are ready to face new challenges. Summer graduates, at this time, I recognize you as graduates of Mt. Healthy High School Class of 2024." This summer graduation ceremony was not just a celebration of academic achievement but also a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination of our students. We are immensely proud of the hard work demonstrated by everyone involved—students, staff, families, and loved ones. This graduation marks the beginning of new opportunities and challenges, and we are confident that our graduates will continue to excel and make us proud.

46 Years of Literacy and Love: Su Bowling’s Journey at Mt. Healthy After an extraordinary 46-year career with the Mt. Healthy City School District, Su Bowling, the beloved Library Media Specialist, is retiring. Su’s journey began in the 1977-1978 school year, and her impact on students and the community has been profound. Cherished Memories and Lasting Connections When asked about her favorite memory at Mt. Healthy, Su shared a heartwarming reflection: "My favorite memories continue when I see former students when I'm out in the community and they recognize me as 'their' librarian." These encounters, filled with positive energy and nostalgia, are a testament to the meaningful connections Su has fostered over the years. A Lifelong Passion for Education Su’s journey in education began with a childhood dream: "I always wanted to be a teacher and later in college discovered my love of libraries." This passion for connecting books with children and engaging with like-minded adults fueled her long and dedicated career. "Passing on the love of learning and reading" became her mission, one she fulfilled with unwavering enthusiasm. A Grateful Heart for Mt. Healthy Expressing her gratitude, Su said, "Thank you for the years in Mt. Healthy. I know that our students deserve the opportunity to be successful." She praised the supportive community and caring staff, highlighting the strong bonds she has formed within the district. Her appreciation for the Mt. Healthy community is evident in her heartfelt words. Looking Forward: Plans for Retirement Though retiring, Su's passion for libraries remains strong. "I would like to continue to work in libraries, perhaps the public library or another part-time job as a school library media specialist," she shared. She humorously added that working in a bookstore might be challenging since she would likely spend her entire paycheck on books to add to her ever-growing "TBR" (to be read) stacks. The Unmeasurable Importance of Reading In her closing thoughts, Su emphasized the immeasurable value of reading: "When you read, you explore worlds you might not ever visit but you truly will discover treasures." She highlighted the transformative power of books in understanding diverse perspectives and answering life's questions. Su also reflected on her personal journey, being the first in her family to attend college, and the unwavering support from her husband and children—all avid readers themselves. A Lasting Legacy As Su Bowling transitions to retirement, her legacy as a passionate educator and librarian will continue to inspire. Her final words resonate deeply: "I encourage you to read what you want, when you want and take that knowledge forward in your life. I will always be a Mt. Healthy Owl!" The Mt. Healthy community is grateful for her decades of dedication and wishes her all the best in her future endeavors.

A Farewell to Bob Buchheim: Celebrating 35 Years of Educational Excellence As the school year draws to a close, the Mt. Healthy School District and community bids farewell to Bob Buchheim, a respected and beloved administrator at South Elementary School. After six impactful years at Mt. Healthy and an illustrious 35-year career in education, Mr. Buchheim is retiring—but not slowing down. A Memorable Journey at Mt. Healthy Reflecting on his tenure, Mr. Buchheim’s favorite memory stands out vividly: "Field Day at South Elementary School." This event encapsulates the spirit of community and joy that has been a hallmark of his time at Mt. Healthy. It’s moments like these that have made his years in education deeply rewarding. A Lifelong Commitment to Service When asked about his motivation to remain in education for over three decades, Mr. Buchheim’s answer was both simple and profound: "I gain fulfillment from serving others. You would be hard-pressed to find a better way to serve than in education." His passion for service has been the driving force behind his career, inspiring both his colleagues and students. A Heartfelt Message to the Community Mr. Buchheim’s message to the Mt. Healthy community is highlights his gratitude and humility. "Every moment (the good, the bad, and the inspirational) has shaped who I am. I was blessed to serve the students, staff, and families of Mt. Healthy." His words reflect a deep appreciation for the experiences and relationships that have defined his career . Looking Ahead: A New Chapter Begins Though retiring from Mt. Healthy, Mr. Buchheim isn’t stepping away from education. "I will be retiring at the end of June and starting a new journey in life as the principal of St. Vivian. I still have quite a bit in my tank," he shared. A Legacy of Excellence In his parting words, Mr. Buchheim emphasized the core of his educational philosophy: "Our students, staff, and families deserve nothing but our best every day and in every way. Anything that doesn't serve that purpose is wasted effort." These words serve as a powerful reminder of the high standards he has brought to his work. As Mt. Healthy says goodbye to Mr. Buchheim, his legacy of service, commitment, and excellence will undoubtedly continue to inspire. His new community at St. Vivian is fortunate to welcome such a dedicated and passionate leader.

Highlighting this event's success, 10 of our outstanding young men earned 13 full scholarships! Moreover, we had an unexpected but delightful surprise: our assistant/manager received a scholarship offer to join a college’s athletic training staff, recognizing their exceptional hospitality and hard work during the showcase. We are also proud to report that of our 25 seniors on the football team, 14 now hold Division I or Division II scholarship offers following this event. This achievement reflects not only their talent but also the strong support and guidance provided by the coaching staff. This event would not have been possible without the tireless efforts of Coach Jordan Stevens. His commitment and work ethic in organizing the showcase ensured our student-athletes were given the opportunity to highlight their talent. Thank you to everyone in the Mt. Healthy community for your continued support of our students and athletic programs. Together, we are making significant strides in providing our young men with opportunities to excel and pursue their dreams.

Sustainable Designs Earn Mt. Healthy Students Ribbons and Recognition On Saturday, May 18th, 2024, the students of Mt. Healthy showcased their creativity and hard work at the Design Lab Exhibit and Gallery Walk held at Newport on the Levy. This event featured impressive designs presented by our students to professionals, families, and peers. The entire project was at no cost to the district! The project began in February, when staff members Jane Haffner and Robin Nguyen took it upon themselves to collect recycled materials from the Design Lab recycling center during a school holiday. They engaged students in lessons on sustainability, planning, and architectural concepts. They also coordinated with architect volunteers, Zohet visited North Elementary and Wendy visited South Elementary—providing advice and guidance. We are incredibly proud of our students for their creativity, ingenuity, and bravery in presenting their projects. Special recognition goes to the following students who attended and received ribbons for delivering at least three presentations: North: 6th Grade: "Yummy Comfort Quad" Aly and Kenya presented at least three times and each earned a ribbon! (Christine & Madison also contributed to this project.) 2nd/3rd Grade: "Leafy Lane" Otis presented at least three times and earned a ribbon!
