Congratulations, Officer Brandenburg
From Hamilton Township Police: Officer Brandenburg was honored for his impactful role as the School Resource Officer (SRO) at Little Miami Local Schools High School. Shane has mentored countless students and forged a vital connection between the police department and the school community. This year, Ofc. Brandenburg earned the prestigious National Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO) Practitioner designation, a mark of excellence in school-based law enforcement. To achieve this, he completed over 224 hours of specialized training, met rigorous standards, and joined an elite group of only 15 officers in #Ohio to ever achieve this honor in the 30+ year history of NASRO—and he was the sole recipient in 2024!

Fiscal Focus
The Little Miami school district has seen continued growth over the years in terms of the number of homes in the area and the corresponding increases in enrollment. But how does Little Miami compare to the rest of Warren County and to the state with regards to enrollment?
As you can see below, data compiled from the most recent state report card for the 2023-2024 school year, Little Miami is the third largest district in Warren County. As compared to the entire state, which has a district average size of approximately 2,358 students, Little Miami is in the top 91% of districts in enrollment.
With the continued growth in the area, Little Miami is sure to maintain growth each year.
