MVS is about growth, and its purpose is to
enrich the Uves of the students in order to help them move beyond all expectations, beyond anything imagined,
beyond excellence, and beyond what anyone
thought possible. MVS is plowing forward into an new age of dedication to
education, diversity, tolerance, respect, and sense of community.

The Miami Valley School commends its 43 graduates. Congratulations to the Class o f 2008!
This year's seniors had a different experience than previous years, because their senior projects consisted of learning to write checks, how to do laundry, and what to pack for college. It was more of a workshop than community service, but the
students say they learned a lot. It was a great experience and they ended the year strong!

The day seniors received their caps and | gowns was a big one. There was
excitement all around, and each senior was smiling from ear to ear.

Aesthesia went under a revamping period this year with an unconventional way to the new literary magazine. Instead of the traditional
magazine, writers and artists were invited to pi share their work in writing hours, and in the new ^ zine, where writing and art was showcased in a
creative, fresh way. Though it deviated from the norm, it was successful in revealing different artwork in a different means, unique to MVS.
The highlight of the year was the 2nd Annual Celebration of Diversity and Freedom. As the entire student body gathered together and shared music,
poetry, and memories, the work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was remembered and MVS's devotion to the
acceptance of all cultures was seen. The theme of the event was "making the foreign familiar" and the inspiring speeches brought the intangible concept of freedom to
a level from which all students learned.

Wednesday afternoons at lunch were definitely a time to look forward to this year, thanks to Muse Machine. Muse Machine is an organization that allows students interested
in performing and visual arts to express their creativity. The objective of the members of this year's MVS Muse Machine was to expose themselves to as many different types of art as possible. Everything from martial arts to creative writing
was explored this year. Other highlights of the Muse Machine year included watching the classic movie/musical "Singing in the Rain" at meetings and enjoying an exciting,
dance workshop run by choreographer Nat Horne.

it was another successful year for Student Government under the leadership of President Sarah Patzer. Student Government organized many events, such as the well
attended homecoming dance at Carillon Park, Non-Denominational Jingle Beil Rock, and a popular "Mean Girls" movie night. Assembling and introducing a student creed was another issue on Student Government's agenda this year. Overall, members worked
diligently on asking students their opinions concerning various issues pertaining to the Upper School and were successful in involving the student body in important decisions.

specialized in Furniture Building, ZEN and the art of drawing, Comtemporary Painting, Visual Design, Pottery, and Bead Making. All of the art was placed on display and enjoyed by the MVS community.

The middle school's performing arts program had a tremendous year. Under the leadership of Mr. Ross Williams, the choir impressed parents, students, and faculty
when they showed off their vocal talents at two concerts during the year. The middle school production of Fractured Fairytales was a great success, thanks to the hard
work and talent of many students. Director Katrina Kittle led the students to a better understanding of performing both on and off stage. The crew of the show worked
diligently, mastering the effects of sound and light, in order to dazzle the audience.

Upper School drama kicked off the year with 'You're a Good Man Charlie Brown," a classic connic brought to life in musical form. Then MVS Upper School had the first exciting school production in
the new alumni blackbox theater. The theater or studio was previously the lower school qymnasium and has been transformed for the performing arts. Teacher, Mr. Richard Braithwaite, directed two one-act plays with help from his crew of Nate Rowland, Katherine Pardue, and Katie Jordan: "Black Comedy" and "Lovers." The former was a side-splitting comedy and the the latter a
tragic love story. In the spring, Mr. Peter Camm directed the play 'The Little Prince,' a French story about a little prince with profound views of the world around him. Many exciting things to
come next year.

Throughout the year, the middle school has participated in activities that build teamwork, character, independence, and are just plain fun! From the annual swim outing at the beginning of the year, to fun and creative science projects, students bond and make new friends while learning through hands-on experiences. Perhaps the most exciting activity of the year. Camp Joy, teaches students to step out of their comfort zone and to find their true selves. The key to learning, they soon discover, is not just sitting in a classroom, but working together for a common goal. Spirit days also promote a sense of unity for the
students, and fun classroom projects give students a new perspective.

Mr. Graetz and several students were immersed for four weeks in educating themselves about the Civil Rights Movement. They saw movies, went to museums, and interviewed members and scholars of the movement. Through these interviews, the students learned about inspirational leaders in the movement, and how to start their own movement using the knowledge they have gained. The students also took a trip to Montgomery, Alabama, and Atlanta, Georgia, to further their education on the subject of Civil Rights. This enlightening and inspirational experience that the students now share is truly one to remember.
During the four weeks of immersion, twenty-one students embarked on an artistic exploration. Studying theatre, art, and New York City, the students became familiar with works of art and the jargon of the theatre world, while also participating in improvisation workshops and other activities. Once the group arrived in the huge metropolis of New York City, they were swept up, discovering all that their adventure had in store for them. Throughout their one-week stay the group saw plays and musicals including "Hairspray" and "Farnsworth Invention." They also dove into the many art museums of Manhattan, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art. After returning home to Dayton, the students participated in making their own artwork by creating pastels inspired by paintings seen in the museums they visited. This immersion group investigated and gained a new appreciation of both visual and performing art.

Criminal Justice started off with a bang as the participants began to explore all facts of the law enforcement profession with the leadership of Randy Duff and Vin Romeo. Through visits to the County and Federal Courthouses, as well as meetings with prominent defense and prosecuting attorneys within the Dayton area, students familiarized themselves with the intricacies of the criminal justice system. Students were each given the opportunity to ride along with a cop during their actual shift, paid a visit to the Montgomery County Jail, visited a police training facility, and observed specific offices of law enforcement at work.

New Zealand focused primarily on organic farming and sustainability. The group worked about four hours a day to compensate for food and shelter. The students slept in tents and ate a purely organic diet. At the first farm in Loburn, the group worked on maintenance projects and enjoyed a hearty, homemade German diet.
^ The second farm in Canvas Town, a vegan and sugar-free center, focused on taming the mind with daily meditations and lessons in massage. The students ended their trip in Dannevirke, a botanically diverse farm. By the end of the immersion, the students had gained a high level of respect for people that produce their food everyday.
Stepping Out: 9th GradeThe freshman immersion program puts an emphasis on stepping out of comfort zones, and this year was no exception. Activities included visiting various houses of worship, ballroom dancing, flying planes, rock climbing, meditation, and yoga. Students got to learn To-Shin-Do, a form of martial arts. The most climactic part of Stepping Out was being snowbound for two extra days during a trip to Hocking Hills! The immersion finished with the sharing of autobiographies.

India: The Footsteps of BuddhaAn extraordinary spiritual and cultural awakening is exactly how this immersion group would describe their everlasting journey. Beginning in Delhi, a fast-paced metropolis, they quickly adapted to Indian customs. Once comfortable with this cultural shift, they moved on to tour towns of Agra, Jaipur, and Varanasi. While in Dharamsala, surrounded by the beauty of the Himalayas, this group conquered the true essence of Buddhism, constructing unique personal ideals gained from a powerful teaching taught by the Dalai Lama. Finally, the last stop in Nepal brought wholesome beauty as the students enjoyed a private plane ride over Mount Everest. This immersion group succesfully blazed their own cultural and spiritual path.

Learning many forms of dance is not an easy task to accomplish in four weeks, but this immersion took on the challenge. Working in a variety of dance studios in the Dayton area, this group focused on four different styles: contemporary, ballroom, anatomical, and belly dancing. After learning the fundamentals of moving through space in different forms, the members of this immersion were able to express themselves through dance, culminating in performances for the school community.

With many of their former players filling in the shoes of their varsity predecessors and the departure of their coach, the Junior Varsity Golf team began with a fresh start. Under the guidance of Coach Brian Motto, they took on their schedule and gradually increased their skills and ability throughout the season. Coach Motto stated, "I am very impressed at the way they handled themselves on the course, and I am proud of how they all improved throughout the season.” The athletes set some key ground work for next season as they continue to play at the junior varsity and varsity levels. With some inexperienced players on the team, the students showed teamwork and compassion as they helped each other reach their goals.
The Miami Valley Men's Junior Varsity Soccer team proved to be successful throughout their season. Under Coach Klimowicz, the JV Soccer team's main focus was playing together as a team. Coach K chose this to be the main focus for the year because the team was made up of a mix of new and returning members. The hard work of practicing together and bonding as a team led them to their final record of 4-1-4. This has been one of the best records the Men's JV Soccer team has had in quite some time. The most significant experience that occurred during their season was their victory against Seven Hills. This was the first time Miami Valley had ever beaten Seven Hills in men's soccer. The hard work given by the JV team this year sets Miami Valley up for future success in upcoming years.

This was the first year The Miami Valley School had a IVliddle School Girls' Volleyball team. However, the girls picked up the fundamentals quickly and had a successful first season. The team's record was 3- 12, but it is not representative of the hard work they put into their game. Basic skills, such as serving, passing, hitting, and setting were ultimately mastered by the end of the season. These girls are to be commended for stepping up to participate in this unfamiliar sport and setting the ground work for future teams. Coach Kelly Roth commented, " There was a huge improvement in the girls' skills, play, and spirit from the beginning to the end of the season. They were extremely hard-working and dedicated, and they have really matured." Coach Roth is excited for next year's season and hopes for more involvement in the sport.

5 th and 0 ”th Girls' ^occ&cThough the 5th and 6th grade Girls' Soccer team did not win many matches, the teamwork and enthusiasm that the girls demonstrated was exemplary. As the season progressed, the team developed into a hard-working group of athletes. Their determination paid off when they tied a game with a team that had defeated them earlier in the year. The progress the girls displayed encouraged them as they strived to accomplish their goals as a team. The older, more experienced girls on the team stepped up as leaders and helped the younger girls improve. As the coach Headmaster Peter Benedict II stated, "The highlight of the year was watching these fine young players develop as a team to score more goals and avenge early season losses." The team put in a great amount of hard work and should be proud of their efforts.

Great teamwork, enthusiasm, and talent led the middle school Girls' Soccer team to a successful season. Though the team was small, they stood up to the challenges they faced including some extremely competetive teams. Under the direction of Coach Joshua Haws, the girls not only grew as individual players, but also as a team. "They worked the ball well and began passing to each other more and more as the season progressed," said Coach Haws. The spirit and enthusiasm that the girls displayed both on and off the field were remarkable and these middle school athletes are the future of a very successful upper school team. The team only lost one game. Their tournament win at Fairborn 3-1, was the highlight of their extremely successful season.

Competitive Weight LiftingCoached by Mrs. Kemper, Senior Brian Sweeny competed in various weight lifting competitions for the first time in school history. Brian first competed in the Shawnee High School Invitational in the 125-lb weight division, and placed first by lifting 700 lbs. Brian had the most success in his debut in the 114-lb unequipped weight division for the High School State competition. Unequipped is the regulation stating that competitors cannot wear squat suits during competition. These suits help competitors to lift five or more pounds during competition. Despite this setback Brian still lifted a total of 717 lbs (182 bench, 237 squat, 297 deadlift) braking four world records and four national records. He moved on to the Teenage National Competition, competing in the same division as he did at state, and finished with the same lifting breakdown. He once again broke four world records and will go down as the most successful weight lifting graduate in Miami Valley history.

The 3rd and 4th grade Girls' Basketball team played hard and had fun during practices and games. The girls learned fundamental skills like passing, shooting and strategies. The coach was very proud of her girls and happily stated that, 'The girls learned so much and it was a pleasure working with them this season." When asked about the season, player Kinnera Vailbhaneni sa id ," I had lots of fun and 1 am definitely going to play next year, too." The rest of the team showed similar interest and enjoyment of the sport, and the first-time players gained some valuable experience.

Even though this team was small, they were very strong- willed and excited to learn more about basketball. Due to the fact that they did not have much experience regarding fundamentals and basic play, their coaches patiently taught the boys important aspects of basketball, which will continue to help them in years to come. Each and every player was dedicated to the sport and put his very best effort into each game. They all helped each other out and worked well together as a team during practice and games.

W om an's V a rs ity S o ftb a llWhile many of this year's Varsity Girls' Softball team were new to the sport, everyone was able to pick up basic fielding, throwing, batting, and base running skills during practice. The girls maintained high spirits and great attitudes, cheering each other on when practices and games got tough. Coach Brenna Bretscher comments, "The varsity softball team, comprised mostly of freshmen, one senior, and one sophomore, met certain team goals and fell short on others. Their goal of team unity and cohesion was unequivocally met while the winning percentage was not. However, with the senior leadership of
Madison 'Jose' Kretzler, this team came together to seriously compete against more .experienced, veteranteams.iri the MBC. I'm

The JV Men's Tennis team had one of their most successful seasons to date. Ending the season with an overall record of 16 wins and 2 losses, the JV players set the bar very high for next year. Coach Mark Jones claimed that the season was "action packed and it kept everybody watching on the edge of their seats." After taking 3rd place in the Centerville Doubles Tournament, the young men were able to conquer notable teams such as Centerville, Beavercreek, and Miamisburg. Even during the rare losses that they experienced, the team still kept their head up and used their losses as a way of preparing for the next match. Their determination and perserverance payed off in the end and helped them have a great season.

For the first time in MVS's history, 15 students participated on an Ultimate Frisbee Team. Led by Jeremy Klaben, Claire Doty, and Coach Braithwaite; practices, film sessions, scrimmages, and tournaments took place. After about three weeks of practices, the team traveled to Cincinnati to attend a tournament with two other teams. The MVS team tried their best, but they came up short against both of their opponents. Later in the season, the captains planned an MVS Ultimate Tournament. Lakota High School (OH), Huntington High School (WV), and Central Grove High School (IN) attended the one-day tournament in one of the most beautiful days in spring. Playing four different games, the MVS A team and B team had a fun time and ended up doing much better than expected.

The Middle School Track and Field team had a strong core group of runners this season that allowed it to step up the game in comparison to previous years and become increasingly competitive. With Michael Coleman's impressive coaching, the team worked hard and managed to achieve success in nearly every event. Although an extremely young team was forced to face numerous challenges this year, the runners still managed to dominate at their various meets. They took on new events and even new runners showed enthusiasm and remarkable strength as they took to the track for their first time. Coach Coleman stated as a final note: "We are a very strong team but a young team, and as the runners get older and get a solid taste of experience, we can only get stronger."

The 5th Grade Lacrosse team was challenged and motivated to make this year an impressive one. They practiced and worked hard for their results. Even when ran the team ran into trouble, they faced it head on and never gave up. The boys worked together as a team, and supported each other throughout the entire season. Because this was the very first year for lacrosse, the team had many challenges to overcome. The boys look forward to future seasons.

The Middle School Boys' tennis team concluded another all-around successful year. With many players lost due to the addition of lacrosse, Coach Claire Larson believed that this "challenged many of the other players to step up and play on higher courts.The 8th graders dominated singles, which was a new role for most of them." The team finished with a 4 win-4 loss record with notable victories coming against Miarnisburg and Kings. The boys focused primarily smart and consistent tennis play through involvment of the sportmanship and mental aspects of the game. These fundamentals set the foundation for future years to

The Middle School Softball girls had one busy schedule this season, but faced every game with ease and grace. They had quite a few new girls who had never played softball before, and included thenn, and helped thenn adjust to this fast-paced sport. All the girls were supportive of one another, and pitched in whereever help was needed. The coach was pleased with the team's effort and enthusiasm for the sport this year. Like most years, there were some challenges to overcome, but they were done with such maturity and poise, "All of the girls were a pleasure to work with," says Coach Blackburn. Next year promises to be filled with even more surprises and fun.

It's Tough On A Dog
By Jean W . Sawtell Its tough on a dog when his boy grows up,
W hen he no longer romps and frolics like a pup.Its tough on a dog when his boy gets old,
W hen they no longer cuddle on his bed when its cold.Its tough on a dog when his boy gets tall.
W hen has off with the boys playing soccer and baseball. They no longer paddle through the mud in the bog.
Hoping to find a stray turtle or frog.They no longer run through the grass up to their knees,
Or roll in the piles of fresh fallen leaves.Its tough on a dog when his boy gets tall,
W hen hes off to school, looking at girls in the hall.Its tough on a dog when he has work to do,
When he forgets to play as he used to.Its tough on a dog when instead of the woods or field or pond.
His boy becomes a manand the man Is gone.

Katrina KittleThe up-beat attitude, smiling face, and witty
personality of Ms. Kittle will truly be missed in years to come. From passionately directing fantastic plays to tackling Orwell's Animal Farm with middle schoolers,
she has contributed to the MVS community in countless ways. Her room, covered with flamingoes,
Johnny Depp, and other reasons to be happy, provided an exciting and stimulating environment for middle school writers. We wish her all the best on her
future endeavours and best of luck on her writing career!
Claire LarsonIn her four years at MVS, Ms. Larson became a favorite
teacher and tennis coach due to her incredibly fun teaching style and ability to relate to her students. She has been an outstanding addition to the middle school and has contributed to the MVS community in many ways. Notably, she organized the 1st annual Run for
the Rams, which is sure to grow into a new tradition in the future. A gifted teacher and honest friend, Ms.
Larson will be missed greatly. Best wishes to her for all of her upcoming adventures!

problems. From aiding publications to combating viruses that plagued the school's servers, Mr. Arnold as network administrator saw to it that the school ran without a hitch
for years. Students and faculty alike will miss Mr.Arnold's expertise and resourcefulness.
In her many years at MVS, Mrs. Hartman has made 4th grade an experience to remember. The sound of her unique whistle
to call the kids in from recess, her passion for all things outdoors at Glen Helen, and her enthusiasm for the state fair have always been cherished by students past and present.
Her compassionate teaching style and ability to connect with students is remarkable and we will miss her a great d ea l! 125

In the beginning of this year, we had a vision to take the iVIVS yearbool< to next level: we wanted to make it more creative and comtemporary. There is so nnuch work that goes into making a yearbook, but with all the help from our staff, we pulled together a very creative piece of work. We worked extremely hard to finish this wonderful memory book, and hope everyone enjoys it for many years to come. Look back through this 2007-2008 yearbook and be reminded of all the fun times we have shared at MVS. Thanks for supporting the MVS Successions. Sincerely,Editors:Kaitlin Bressler and Rachel Edwards

Lower school boys wait in anticipation of Convocation.
Sports this year also proved to be excellent.
The volleyball team reached new heights and the track girls won Districts. Headmaster Mr. Benedict states how academics soared beyond his imagination;
"I witnessed kids who asked questions, went the extra mile,
got involved, worked hard, and showed they loved
being students." All in all, the year was a success, embracing
new changes as well as honoring new experiences that will last a
lifetime.
