On Saturday, January 6, during the BCS Board of Education Annual Organizational Meeting, Jo Ann Rigano was nominated and elected Board President for the 2024 school year. Krista Hunt was nominated and elected Board Vice President.
This week, we highlight Ashley Bieller, a member of the student nutrition team at Shaw Elementary.
Although Ashley began her BCS career only a few months ago, she says that recently retired student nutrition operations manager Dawn Kacvinsky has been the most influential person in her career since joining our team.
If there is one thing Ashley hopes more people know about Beavercreek City Schools, it would be that we have a great community and awesome staff. She also hopes to influence our students by teaching them to be happy, healthy, and kind.
We are thrilled to have Ashley as a member of the Creek family!
This week's staff spotlight is Lukas Schweikert, our freshmen world history teacher and middle school cross country and track coach. ⭐⭐⭐
Lukas has been teaching in the district for two years and coaching for five. He says two of his favorite quotes are "To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift" and Mr. Roger's quote, "You make each day a special day by just you being you." He believes every student is unique and has their own special gifts. As long as they give their best, every day of teaching is a special and fantastic day.
Lukas also says that many individuals have influenced his career. "As a Beavercreek grad, Class of 2012, many teachers in the district directly influenced how I teach and coach. To name a few, Mr. Enneking, Mrs. Ford, Mr. Vinson, Mr. Dave Miller, Mr. Cusick, Mr. Ahrns, and Mr. Schaadt all helped instill my love of history and how to teach it. Mrs. Group, Mr. Group, Ms. Egan, Mrs. Pope, Mr. Willets, Frau Humphrey, Mrs. Russ, Mrs. Nartker, Mr. Wegley, and Mrs. McDaniel showed me the importance of student relationships and how they foster educational growth. These teachers showed that if you care about a student, they will push themselves to learn. I would be remiss if I did not mention my actual family, my DPS family, and my Ferguson family (shoutout to Mr. Kelly, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Gilbert for being the best social studies department!)
Join us in recognizing Chris Stein for his four years of dedication and service to Beavercreek City Schools as a Board of Education member. Chris' term will conclude at the end of the year, December 31.
Thank you, Chris! 🧡🖤
Happy Holidays!
There is no better way to celebrate the first day of winter than with the start of winter break! ❄️❄️☃️❄️❄️
No school for students starting tomorrow, Friday, December 22, through January 5. Enjoy your time off, and we will see you after the new year.
There shouldn't be any last-minute holiday shopping going on this weekend by Trebein students thanks to the fifth graders' Mini Mall!
Yesterday, students could shop and purchase handmade items such as pillows, jewelry, stress balls, candy, and even dog treats. The fifth graders made their items as part of their economics classes.
The students learned about profit, supply and demand, advertising, goods and services, and teamwork while putting together the mini-mall for the rest of the school!
Students at Trebein enjoyed shopping at the fifth grade mini mall today!
Hannah Johnson, kitchen manager at Valley Elementary, is this week’s staff spotlight! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hannah has been with the district for two years and hopes to teach students the importance of kindness. She says, “Acts of kindness make the world a better place for everyone.”
Hannah’s parents are to whom she attributes her success, as they have always supported and encouraged her. They also modeled a good work ethic and strong values growing up.
If there is one thing she hopes people know about our district, it would be that we have so many wonderful staff members, and our students are always the top priority!
Ms. Rice’s adorable kindergarten class at Trebein put on a VERY special performance for their families, including singing and dancing, and even had special props! They ALL did amazing! Afterward, students decorated gingerbread cookies. ⛄🎄🎅

Mrs. Curd's two third grade ELA classes recently researched and wrote papers about their favorite animals. The students also drew illustrations to go with their research papers. Their research papers and illustrations were then sent to a student publishing company, Student Treasures, and made into a published book. Congrats for a job well done! The amazing cover was created by our IST Jessica Kucinski.

Mila Palichat is Trebein's latest SHINE award winner. Mila was nominated by her teacher because she always works hard and tries her best. She is great about reaching out to other students so that she can include them in partner work or classroom activities. She is responsible and models a positive attitude every day.
Trebein first-graders brought book characters to life via pumpkins through their recent Pumpkin Book Reports--the perfect way to make learning fun at Halloween! 🎃 #BCreekSchools

We had so much fun at our Fun Run!! Thanks to all of our donors for raising nearly $48,000 for Trebein! 🥳🥳🥳 And many thanks to our volunteers who help make everything possible 💙💙💙
The Trebein Gardening Club has started harvesting some of the vegetables we have grown in our school garden. We harvested onions, tomatoes, arugula, and parsley. The young gardeners were excited to take the bounty home. We topped up our raised beds so we can plant more food. All our veggies were grown by seed and nourished by our own compost. All grown at school with students lead by Mrs. Salyers.
