2025 State of the Schools: Our Story | |
|
The 2024-2025 State of the Schools is a celebration of what makes Mariemont City Schools extraordinary. This year, we tell Our Story—a story written by all of us. It is shaped by the students who strive for excellence, the staff who inspire and guide, and the community that rallies behind them.
Each chapter of Our Story is shaped by the people and moments that define us:
1. A strong foundation built on passion, commitment, and a shared belief in the power of education.
2. Remarkable results that showcase our students’ success from kindergarten through graduation.
3. A connected community that provides unwavering support and opportunities for all.
4. Stability and vision that ensure we continue to thrive for generations to come.
5. Endless opportunities that empower our students to explore, create, and achieve their dreams.
This is Our Story—one of excellence, tradition, and boundless possibility. Thank you for being a part of it.

Talk. They Hear You. is a national initiative designed to help adults start important conversations with children about underage drinking and substance use. Developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the campaign provides tools, resources, and practical guidance to empower adults to have open, ongoing discussions that can shape healthy decision-making. By starting these conversations early and often, parents, caregivers, and educators can help prevent substance use before it starts and support children in making safe, informed choices.
How Substance Use Impacts Mental Health
Substance use and mental health are deeply connected. Young people who struggle with stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, or other mental illnesses may turn to alcohol or other drugs as a way to cope. But, substance use can actually worsen mental health challenges. Alcohol and other drugs can interfere with brain development, increase the risk of mood disorders, and make it harder for youth to develop healthy coping skills.
By fostering open conversations and providing support, adults can help young people manage their emotions in positive ways, reducing the likelihood of turning to substances as an escape.
