Springboro Schools

Our Springboro sports seasons may be over for the school year, but there is still a *lot* of competition happening this summer! 🛶

Rising SHS junior Matthew Cooper is one of 27 local rowers representing the Dayton Boat Club at the US Rowing Youth National Championships in Sarasota, Florida this week!

Matthew and his teammates qualified by placing second in the Men's U17 8+ race and third in the Men's U17 4+ at Regionals. 🥈🥉

Recent SHS graduate Paige Kopittke is also part of the DBC. She helped her boat to a first place finish in the Women's Varsity 8 race at a regatta in Michigan last month and is gearing up for her first year as a collegiate rower at the University of Toledo! 🥇

Good luck to Matthew, Paige, and all the DBC rowers! 🐾

As the year wrapped up, SI students enjoyed some time on the golf course, thanks to the hard work of rising SHS senior David Huss.⛳

David designed and built nine mini golf holes for his Eagle Scout project and donated them to SI for students to use during their annual mini golf math project, meant to help them learn how to find the area of 2D polygons. 🟦🔷

Before testing out the course, students first had to design their own. In small groups, they came up with themes and then calculated the area of each hole and the price of carpet to cover it, taking obstacles, starting mats, and the hole itself into consideration. 📐✖️

After completing their designs and calculations, students exchanged peer feedback before submitting their final projects.

To celebrate, they tested out a real life version of their lesson by playing David’s golf course! 🎉

Now that is some pro level collaboration! Well done! 💯🐾

Love seeing that Boro blue on the podium in Columbus!

Congratulations to Josh Linde on his incredible 6th place finish in the 3200m run at State! 🏅

Freshman Tessa Andrews set a new PR in the 1600m to finish 13th! 🎉

Brody Moore, Reuben Hermiller, and Jacob Schmahl had impressive races against the fastest sprinters and hurdlers in Ohio in the 100m dash, 110m hurdles, and 400m dash! 👟

Congratulations to all five State runners! You make us proud to be Panthers! 💙🐾

The Boro Education Foundation is quickly becoming a game changer for our teachers and staff! 🏫💙

This spring, the foundation launched a new grant program to fund school and classroom projects.

After reviewing applications, founding members Charles Anderson and Rebekah Giuffre proudly presented a check at this week's school board meeting for $6,494 to support 10 projects across the district!

Because of these donations, staff will be able to...

-create a new outdoor library at Clearcreek Elementary 📚

-increase student movement and teamwork with new materials at the junior high 🤝

-provide primary source resources for high school government students 🗽

-build a life skills work space simulation for students with special needs 💼

-install 3D printers for STEM classes at Dennis Elementary 🤖

-purchase a television to display announcements in the high school counseling office 📺

And the list goes on! Be on the lookout for updates next school year as we see these grants put into action.

Thank you to Charles, Rebekah, and the entire Boro Education Foundation team for helping these awesome educators continue to make a positive impact on our students in new ways!

If you see this group walk into your next Trivia Night, you may want to try and join their team!

For the first time ever, Springboro High School qualified for the largest quiz bowl event in the country, hosted by the National Academic Quiz Tournament (NAQT)! 📚

Six members of the SHS Academic Team traveled to Atlanta a few weeks ago where they competed against 320 teams at the NAQT High School National Championship Tournament. 🛎️

As new quizzers on the national championship block, Austin Patch, Quinn Harty, Matthew Cooper, Felix Buten, Keeran Patel, and Evan Wilson represented Springboro well, answering questions about everything from history and literature to current events and pop culture. They finished the weekend 3-7, with two very close games! 🎉

The group hopes to be back at nationals next year to continue climbing up the leaderboard!

Congratulations to the team and Coach Segi! 🐾

No one told the weeds that school is out and they can take a break! 🌱🪏

Thank you to Mrs. Hamilton, an awesome educational assistant at Dennis, for continuing to pour her love (and labor) into the Panther Path, even during summer vacation! 🐾💙

The girls lacrosse State Sendoff was a 10/10! Highly recommend. 💯🥍

Thank you to all who made this first Final Four pre-game experience extra special, including Springboro Ohio Police Department who provided the top notch es**rt out of town! 💙🎉

See you in Mason for the big event @ 7 p.m.!

Go get ‘em, Panthers! 🐾

The road to State starts in Springboro! 🥍💙

A reminder that today’s sendoff for our SHS girls lacrosse team begins at 5 p.m. along the high school entryway! Park in the staff lot and head down to cheer on the team before they leave for Mason! 🎉

If you’re going to the game, enter Mason’s campus by taking Mason-Montgomery Rd. to Nixon Dr. Park in the large high school lots on the north side of the football and lacrosse fields and use the gate in the tunnel under the Beacon Medical Building. (Avoid the middle school lot off Tylersville Rd. as another event is going on.)

Game time is 7 p.m.! Good luck, girls lax! 🐾

Just one more day until our SHS girls lacrosse team heads to Mason for a State Semi Final matchup against Upper Arlington! 🥍

Help us send the team off with all kinds of Springboro spirit by heading to the high school tomorrow (June 2) at 5 p.m. Park in the staff lot near the main entrance and then line the entryway to campus as the girls head out! 🎉

Game time is 7 p.m. and tickets are available online through the OHSAA. 🎟

It's going to be a beautiful night to cheer on Boro! 🐾
