- History
-
The current Miamisburg High School was built in 1972 and originally featured the controversial but then-popular open plan concept with three classroom pods forming a triangle around a center core and a commons area, the largest "room" in the Miamisburg school district.
- The academic pods were completely reprogrammed to follow a more traditional layout within just a few years and received its first addition in 1980. This expansion included a modern, two-story gymnasium complex, locker rooms and fine arts classrooms. In 1982, a classroom wing was added which gave the school 16 more classrooms.
- Rounding out these expansions to the facility is a modern, , two-story, glass and brick addition put on the front of Miamisburg High School in 1993. This new classroom wing includes 21 classrooms, new administrative suites, a third teachers lounge, 5 science labs and a natural light-flooded, glass-encased Atrium which acts as a student commons area and a main entrance hall.
- The school encompasses of floor space and has a 100% capacity mark set at 1,372 students. The school currently has over 1,600. The Miamisburg City School District had plans to build a new, 2000-student comprehensive high school but voters turned down the idea for many years forcing the district to scrap their plans. Throughout the 2000s the high school has been faced with overcrowding problems.
- On November 14, 2007 the Miamisburg School Board announced its plans to expand the high school once again in the form of a addition and an extremely-extensive renovation of the existing facility, including the complete demolition of two of the four "pods" from 1972. The Miamisburg community approved the $78.5 million bond issue on March 4, 2008. The issue will raise about $23 million for the MHS addition/renovation project and $31 million for a new middle school to serve 1500 students in grades 6-8. The bond issue also include $11 million for a seventh elementary school for 550 students, $11 million for an addition/renovation project combining historic Kinder Elementary School and Neff Elementary, and $4 million for security enhancements to all other buildings in the district. Construction should be complete in 2010 for the new elementary school, 2011 for the high school additions and new middle school and 2012 for the Kinder/Neff renovation and addition.
- The Miamisburg High School project is set to include approximately of new construction but also nearly of demolition. The addition is set to include an auxiliary gymnasium, approximately 40 new classrooms (net gain of 20-25), a redesigned and expanded cafeteria/commons area, relocated administrative and guidance suites, an expanded and redesigned media center as well as renovated classrooms, hallways and bathrooms. Outside of the facility itself, the driveways, parking lots and entrances/exits on the Miamisburg High School campus will be modified, relocated and/or expanded. The additions/renovations are being completed in four stages with the auxiliary gymnasium coming first. The overall project is slated for completion in December of 2011.
