Many families in our community have been impacted by the recent government shutdown, and now more than ever, our students and staff have an opportunity to make a difference. Meridian High School is partnering with the Bosque County Food Bank to help ensure that families across our county have food for the holidays and beyond.

We’ll be collecting nonperishable food items from November 3–21. To make it fun, we’re turning it into a grade-level competition!
🏆 1st Place: Pizza Party
🥈 2nd Place: Ice Cream Party
🥉 3rd Place: Popsicle Party

Students can drop off food items in the following grade-level collection rooms:

6th Grade: Bailey or Mr. Y

7th Grade: Alcaraz or Smith

8th Grade: Dunn or Gann

9th Grade: Norman, G. Schur, C. Kerbow, or Doughty

10th Grade: Baucom, L. Schur, or Sterling

11th Grade: Pittman, Reyes, Krueger, or Dagley

12th Grade: Kuykendall, Martinez, Carpenter, or Taylor

Weekly updates will be shared so everyone can see which grade is in the lead! Let’s come together as a Yellowjacket family to support our neighbors and spread kindness this season. 💛
