Miller City’s Project Lead The Way part of Model Schools Yearbook

Miller City High School’s Project Lead The Way (PLTW) program is one of ten schools in the country—and the first in Ohio—named as an exemplary, model school within the PLTW National network of schools. Photos and a story about the students and teachers will be featured in the second annual Model Schools Yearbook, PLTW in Action(2008)Now in its eleventh year, the PLTW program has nearly 2300 schools in 49 states, enrolling more than 250,000 students. At Miller City, 67 students are part of the five-year, rigorous sequence of pre-engineering courses. All 11 PLTW completers who graduated last spring are enrolled in college engineering programs, including four attending Rhodes State College, according to Guidance Counselor Stephen Peck.

One unique feature of Miller City’s program is that Digital Electronics and Computer Integrated Manufacturing classes are taught by Rhodes State instructor David Shaffer, who travels to the rural high school five days a week. Students can receive college credit for their PLTW classes and, because Miller City is a nationally certified school within the PLTW network, they can get college credit from universities such as Purdue, Duke, and the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Our community likes the fact that our students get a taste of the college experience in high school,” Peck explains. “We’re pleased that PLTW would honor us by including us in this prestigious publication.

Miller City teachers, administrators and students accepted national PLTW certification in 2005 from PLTW National representative Richard Blais and Governor's education representative Susan Bodary.
