When fifth grader, Lynzee Oldham, saw her fellow Yellow Jackets’ seeds weren’t sprouting, she went home and graciously built a greenhouse to aide her friends in their project. Kindness grows here!
The students and staff of MES wanted to express their gratitude to the Meridian Volunteer Fire Department for all of their hard work in keeping our town safe. Students each wrote letters, drew pictures, and signed a banner to accompany treats from staff for the MVFD.

A big "Thank You" to our parents for making sure our kids are here every day possible. MISD attendance for last week was above 96%!!! MHS students have state testing this week so attendance continues to be very important.
Please note that this Friday, April 8, is the end of the 5th six weeks. Please help support your child by making sure they have completed all of their assignments.

Parents of Juniors and Seniors--Tarleton University is hosting a TSIA Bootcamp on Saturday. Ms. Hughes discussed this information with the students this morning. TSIA is a placement test used by colleges to determine aptitude in Math, Reading and Writing. More information and a registration QR code is available on the attached flyer. The TSIA will be administered at MHS next Wednesday, April 6th, so this is a wonderful opportunity to prepare. Have a wonderful week!
Student Attendance is one of the most influential factors in student success.
As we move into this gorgeous Spring weather in Texas, we ask that you continue to send your children to school every day unless one of our excused absence criteria is met.
There is an article linked below from "My Texas Public Schools" that gives additional guidance on school attendance in Texas.

Kindergarten students worked hard to catch the leprechaun that was on the loose at MES. Last I heard, he paid them off with gold coins and made a clean getaway.
