Beavercreek High School

Shoutout to our Creek Industries students at BHS! Their hard work and dedication have been instrumental in helping with a project to enhance the safety of all students at the school. This is a large project, and their contributions have made a significant difference. The entire school community greatly appreciates their help. #CreekIndustries #BcreekSchools 🖤🧡🖤🧡

There's never a dull moment with our Beavercreek JROTC cadets. Recently, sixteen cadets began their journey into aviation with a newly developed Aircraft Simulator Club! This 3-stage ground and flight-centered course is designed to familiarize our cadets with the wonders of flight while having a little fun! Check out these simulators! #theskyisthelimit

Beavercreek Robotics Club visited the Mayor’s “First Thursday” meeting! Matthew Chen(10th), Kayleigh Seflers(9th), and Blake Pochet(12th) addressed “The Honorable Don Adams,” Mayor of Beavercreek, along with local members of the Chamber of Commerce and local business owners, sharing the positive impact robotics brings to their high school experience and catapulting interest in STEM-driven careers. Students capped the evening with a demo of VEX REC competition robot maneuvers.

It’s Staff Spotlight time again! This week, we highlight Melinda Dyamod, a paraprofessional at Main Elementary. Melinda has been with the district for ten years and is so grateful to be a member of the Creek family. She loves making memories at BCS and has so many that she couldn’t choose just one to highlight as her favorite. When it comes to her career, she says Ashley Kitchen has been the most influential person. When not busy at work, Melinda enjoys being with her family, enjoying the outdoors, and trying new foods from different cultures. We are very lucky to have Melinda as a part of our district! 🧡🖤 #BCSstaffspotlight

If you don't already know him, meet Mr. Seilhamer! He is this week's Staff Spotlight. Mr. Seilhamer is a 7th and 8th-grade science teacher at Ankeney Middle School and the head girls' basketball coach. He has spent 22 years in the district already. When asked who has been the most influential person in his career, he said, "My wife and kids because I never want to let them down." About his students, he hopes they can learn from him how to be kind and empathic because you never know what someone else might be going through. If there is one thing he wishes more people knew about BCS, it is how much our staff goes above and beyond to provide a great learning experience for all our students.

Remember when our very own Heather Marsh-Myers was selected to join a marching band of 400 band directors nationwide and perform in the 2023 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade? Well, we finally have some photos to share!! Along with the photos, Heather said, "It was an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will always be grateful for. I had an amazing time performing for 3 million people live in NYC and millions more on television. My favorite part was networking with colleagues from across the US and hearing all the people along the parade route calling out to us about how thankful they are for the band directors in their lives!" Congratulations again to Heather on this accomplishment. 🧡🖤

Today, we highlight Brian Shively, our transportation administrative assistant for our staff spotlight. Brian has worked for BCS for five years, and within that time, he credits Transportation Supervisor Lindy Shumaker as the person who has been most influential in his career. He hopes students can learn two things from him: patience and kindness. Also, if there is one thing Brian hopes more people know about our district, it would be the array of opportunities our students have here, ranging from music, athletics, academic teams, and social clubs to numerous other activities. We are incredibly grateful to have Brian as a member of the Creek family!

Please be advised that all BCS evening activities are as planned, including the opening night for the BHS Drama presentation of Hit and Misdemeanor, our Creek Hockey Military Appreciation Night at the Kettering Rec Center, and our boys' basketball game at Springfield.
