Meridian ISD is seeking a driver for one of our regular bus routes. Please contact the Administration Office at 254-435-2081 for additional information.
MES is excited to see all of our students back tomorrow! As a reminder for morning car riders, please keep students in the vehicle until you reach an orange cone spot. Staff members will begin checking temperatures at the car to help students stay warm during this cold weather season. At dismissal time, please pull in to one of the lines at the front (Last name A-M) or side (Last name N-Z) of the building and staff members will help load your students as you get to the front of the line. We usually have the entire campus clear within 5-7 minutes of the dismissal bell thanks to your help with these procedures! Thanks and we are looking forward to a GREAT 2nd Semester!
Welcome Back!
MISD students resume 2nd semester classes tomorrow, January 5, 2021.
We hope that you have stayed well over the break and we are eager to see you all tomorrow.
Face coverings still continue to be a requirement for ages 10 and up.
ANY student riding the bus must wear a face covering while on the bus, regardless of their age.
If your student has any symptoms of Covid, we ask that you contact your child's school and please don't send them.
We look forward to a Fantastic 2021!!!
We are excited to welcome students back tomorrow. If you are wanting your student to participate remotely, please email Mrs. Alvizo at the secondary school for any information for all 6th-12th grade students. Of course, you can also call Mrs. Alvizo as well.

Meridian ISD has seen a rise in confirmed cases of COVID and close contacts among our staff and students over the past few days. In an attempt to mitigate spread among our community, students will dismiss today at our regular time, 3:25, for the Christmas holidays and not return until January 5, 2021 per our district calendar. Although MISD staff will be working tomorrow, students will not attend school. December 17 was set as an early dismissal day already so students will only be missing a “half day” and will not have to make up that time. Please know that MHS is running an adjusted schedule today to accommodate students finishing final exams. MES has chosen to postpone their holiday parties set for tomorrow until after the holidays. I will be posting more info when I have it but for now, I wanted you to be aware so you could make appropriate plans. Thanks for your flexibility and help in sharing this post to get the word out! Mrs. Edwards
