Please remember that tomorrow, May 3rd , is Election Day. We encourage all who are registered to get out and vote. Meridian ISD has two items on the ballot. Our Board of Trustee's election, and the District has called for a Bond to move debt from our Maintenance and Operations budget to our Debt Service Budget. If the Bond passes it will free up funds from our Maintenance and Operations side and reduce our deficit. It will also allow us to pay the debt off earlier and reduce the interest owed. We appreciate our Community and the support we are shown.

Friendly reminder that next week is Teacher and Staff appreciation week. Our teachers and staff work so hard to make your school a wonderful learning environment for our students!
Here are some recommendations for easy (and free!) ideas for teacher/staff appreciation:
Handwritten Thank-You Notes – A heartfelt letter or card from a parent sharing how the teacher has impacted their child.
Emails of Appreciation – A kind email sent to the teacher and/or copied to administration, recognizing their dedication.
Social Media Shout-Outs – Publicly thanking teachers on school or community Facebook pages.
Testimonials for Newsletters – Offer a quote or blurb the school can use in their weekly newsletter to celebrate a teacher.

Due to the baseball play-off game, CTE Night has been postponed until next week. The new event will take place on Monday, May 5th virtually. This virtual event will give parents the chance to ask questions of our CTE teachers from the comfort of their home. May 5th @ 6 p.m. The link to the event will be posted on Monday and be included in the weekly newsletter.
