Minford Local School District Secures Mini-Pitch

In an exciting development for the Minford Local School District, assistant high school

boys soccer coach Jonas Smith has successfully secured a Mini-Pitch, thanks to a

collaboration with the Columbus Crew, Lower.com, Nationwide, the US Soccer

Foundation, and Musco Lighting. This investment is set to enhance the district's athletic

facilities and provide students with increased opportunities for physical activity and skill

development.

The Mini-Pitch, designed for soccer but versatile enough for various sports, will serve as

a community hub for youth engagement and fitness. The selected location of Minford

Elementary School’s playground provides daily access for use during the school day by

K-3 students and for extracurricular activity by the community as well.

It is particularly significant for southern Ohio, where access to soccer-related facilities

can be limited. The partnership with the Columbus Crew, a Major League Soccer team,

and the US Soccer Foundation underscores the importance of grassroots development

in the sport, while Musco Lighting’s involvement ensures that the pitch will be equipped

with state-of-the-art technology and lighting for nighttime use.

Coach Smith expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, "This Mini-Pitch will not

only elevate our soccer program but also foster a sense of community among our

students and families. We are grateful for the support from the Columbus Crew, the US

Soccer Foundation, Musco Lighting, Lower.com, and Nationwide in making this vision a

reality. Appalachia has a tendency to be overlooked for opportunities. Scioto County

falls behind both Ohio and US averages in many economic and educational measures. I

hope that this Mini-Pitch provides an opportunity for athletes in the area to develop their

skills and potentially open up avenues to a higher education that may have not been

available before. I’m thrilled that our community gets to lead the way and provide the

first Mini-Pitch in the tristate area. It is great to see such prominent organizations share

this vision for our community and area of the state.”

The installation of the Mini-Pitch is expected to begin in early 2025, with hopes of a

grand opening event that will bring together students, families, and local supporters.

This new facility will provide a safe and engaging space for young athletes to develop

their skills, promote teamwork, and enjoy the game of soccer.

With this initiative, the Minford Local School District is taking a significant step towards

enhancing its athletic programs and promoting a healthy lifestyle among its students.

Our 22nd Annual Winterfest is Saturday Nov. 9th from 11 a.m.  – 5 p.m. at Minford High School with:

The Minford Board of Education does not permit outside groups or individuals to come onto its property for any purpose without prior approval, and use of facilities must be in accordance with Board policies.  This includes demonstrations, distribution of flyers, campaigning, and commercial advertising.

The November meet of the Minford Local Board of Education has been changed to Thursday, November 21, 2024.  The meeting will be held in the High School Media Center at 6 p.m.

The Minford Local Schools Marketing Committee would like to showcase the many successful alumni of Minford High School.  Over the summer, graduates submitted their information to be part of a slideshow that showcases their graduation year and career path/accomplishments.  Join us in celebrating our alumni who have "Soared to Success" since leaving MHS! 

*The committee will solicit additional alumni to be part of the slideshow later this year.  Keep an eye on social media and the district website for more information on how to add your information to our list.

We are excited to announce that we will be switching to Remind to send out all school and district communications in the near future.  This will replace the old system of dialing and sending automated calls.  This is mostly a Text Message only system, except for Emergency calls, it can call landline phones with an audio call.  We have many of our parents' cell phone numbers in our system, but not all.  We will be sending out test messages in the next few days.  If you did not receive the message, then we do not have your cell phone number as a primary number in our system.  You can visit our Remind portal to manually sign up for messages from a specific building or contact your school's office to update them with your latest cell phone number.  Here is the link to the Falcon Remind Portal
