Wednesday night, the Milan C-2 Board of Education approved the hiring of Coach Kennedy Christian as the new Assistant Varsity Softball Coach and 9-12 Science Instructor for the 2025-2026 school year.
Coach Christian graduated High School from Putnam County where she played softball with current Head Softball Coach, Sara Webb.

She completed her Associates Degree from NCMC and then transferred to Missouri Western State University where she graduated Magna Cum Laude with her Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry with a concentration in Health Professions and a Minor in Biology.
Coach Christian is a familiar face to the Wildcats, as she taught for us a couple of years ago before taking some time to stay home with her babies; she and her husband, Kameran, have two sweet kiddos, Koda (2) and Kayson (1).
Upon her departure, she shared that given the opportunity, when was ready to get back to the classroom she would love to come back to Milan. She shared with us that she can't wait to see familiar faces that she's missed so much and "rejoin such a great community of students, teachers, and staff. I'm glad to be a Wildcat again!" #LearningTodayLeadingTomorrow
All guardians of 7-12 students should've received an email with a grade check from PowerSchool Wednesday. These grade checks were also archived on the parent portal. If you cannot access the grade check report, please email Mrs. Dodson (bdodson@milan.k12.mo.us) directly from the email address you'd like to receive school communications to.
Milan C-2 will be in session Friday 2/21/25!

Coach Dabney will be graduating from Truman State University in May with his Bachelors in Psychology before starting his Masters in Education. Coach Dabney played with new Head Football Coach, Ben Miller, at TSU and is looking forward to being able to continue working with him on the sidelines.
Coach Dabney is a very familiar face to the Wildcats, as a Milan High School graduate of 2021 and former three-sport athlete. He looks to bring enthusiasm and dedication to the field as well as the classroom. He shared that he is, "Very excited for the opportunity and can't wait for the Fall semester to be here!"
Please join us in giving a warm Wildcat Welcome to Coach Dominic Dabney!
Last night the Milan C-2 Board of Education approved the hiring of Coach Ben Miller as the new Head Varsity Football Coach and Weights Instructor for the 2025-2026 school year.

Coach Miller graduated from Westran High School and shared that he was passionate about coaching football at a school similar in size and that he is excited to build on the traditions of Wildcat Football. After High School, he went to Missouri Western for two years and then transferred to Truman State University. While at TSU, Coach Miller was a four-year starter (2021-2024), a three-time team captain, a three-time American Crossroads Bowl Champion, and a two-time All-GLVC Conference Defensive Linemen.
Coaches and staff that have worked closely with Coach Miller over the last few years boasted his leadership skills, work ethic, dedication to excellence in the classroom, and determination. Coach Miller shared with us that his goal is not just to coach football, but to develop young men into respectful, goal-oriented, competitive, and reliable people of the community. He also stated that he is, "Super excited to join the Wildcat Family and ready to get going. Let's get started!"
