The featured staff member of the week is Mr. Grant Schiering. Mr. Schiering graduated from Harrison High School in Harrison, Ohio. After high school, he attended Miami University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in secondary education with a concentration in integrated social studies. He later earned his master’s degree in educational leadership and supervision from Indiana State University. Mr. Schiering taught for nine years at East Central High School, and he was the... dean at their middle school for half of a year. For the past two years, he has proudly served as the assistant principal of South Dearborn Middle School.
Mr. Schiering is married with two children. He and his wife have been married for five years. For fun, Mr. Schiering enjoys spending time with his family, officiating football, working the sticks at Bengals games, and watching football (especially the Bengals). A fun fact about Mr. Schiering is that he met the late Doris Roberts (Raymond’s mother on the television show “Everybody Loves Raymond”) when he was on vacation with his family in Italy. It’s also pretty cool that he has traveled to Italy. We are so thankful for everything that Mr. Schiering does for our middle school students, staff, and families!

Mr. Knigga’s South Dearborn Middle School art students explored the fundamentals of design by creating their own 2D maze art, incorporating line, shape, pattern, and balance. Through this project, they examined positive space (the areas occupied by their maze paths) and negative space (the open areas that define and enhance the design). This hands-on experience deepened their understanding of composition and visual contrast—key concepts in both art and architecture.
