Maggie Holtkamp Named Assistant Principal of Little Miami High School
Little Miami Schools is proud to announce that Maggie Holtkamp has been selected as the new Assistant Principal of Little Miami High School.
Holtkamp brings over a decade of experience in education and leadership, including her most recent role as Assistant Principal at Lebanon High School, where she oversaw special education services for grades 9–12 and led the implementation of Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Holtkamp previously served as an intervention specialist and department chair, and also began her career in education at Little Miami High School.
“As I begin this next chapter at Little Miami High School, I’m excited to immerse myself in the culture, traditions, and spirit that make this community special,” Holtkamp shared. “Building strong, meaningful relationships is my priority, as I believe they are the foundation of a thriving school.”
Holtkamp holds a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from the American College of Education and a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Cincinnati. Her leadership strengths include data-driven decision making, student-focused planning, and building a positive school culture through collaboration.
“My goal is to be a consistent, compassionate, and solutions-oriented leader who serves as a valuable resource to students, staff, and families,” said Holtkamp. “I’m committed to fostering a school environment that is both academically rigorous and emotionally supportive—so we can grow and succeed together.”
Holtkamp is a Little Miami graduate. She lives in the district with her husband and two daughters, who attend Little Miami Schools.

We’re so excited to kick off another incredible year at the Warren County Fair—and that means it’s time to shine the spotlight on our amazing 4-H members! From livestock shows and creative projects to leadership, hard work, and dedication, these students represent the heart of our community.
This year we have more than 100 Little Miami Students participating in 4-H!
Let’s cheer on all of our 4-H participants as they showcase the results of their year-long efforts. Stop by the barns, exhibits, and show rings to support our Panthers and all of Warren County's youth as they demonstrate responsibility, skill, and pride in everything they do.
Congratulations to Sam and Jack Skiba. The brothers showed their mini dachshund puppies, Jessi and Kati! Sam finished 3rd and 4th while Jack finished 4th and 5th.
📸 Be sure to share your fair memories with us so we can celebrate together!
