MISD 6th-12th graders will return to Face to Face Instruction tomorrow, Wednesday, February 3, 2021. Please remember that if you are showing symptoms or you are still on quarantine, you can't return yet. We appreciate your support and flexibility through this process as we know that moving to remote instruction can be a burden. Stay Safe, Stay Well, Stay Blessed! Mrs. Edwards

Meridian ISD is seeking a full time cafeteria assistant/cook. Competitive wages and benefits. Please contact Debbie Sanchez at 254-435-2723 for details. Applications are available online at: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/458747/support_staff_application.pdf and at the Meridian ISD Administration building located at 201 2nd St, Meridian, TX.

Prom meeting rescheduled for Feb. 11th at 7:00pm in the cafeteria.

Instructional Changes in Grades 6th-12th Due to a few confirmed cases of Covid at MHS and students who were in close contact, our Secondary campus will be doing Asynchronous (Remote) instruction only beginning tomorrow through Tuesday, February 2. We plan to have secondary students return to face to face instruction on Wednesday, February 3. Having them be remote for this length of time allows us to separate and mitigate possible spread. All staff members will report to campus and be available as needed for student assistance. 6th-12th grade students are required to check their student emails, log into Google classroom and complete assignments. Daily from 10:30-12:30, MHS will offer breakfast and lunch to our students in a drive through fashion by the high school gym entrance. Bus routes will run as normal. Extracurricular events and practices may run as normal and those students will be contacted by sponsors/coaches regarding specifics. As we continually monitor our staff and students, the elementary students have been unaffected by high school and will remain in their traditional face to face setting. With JH & HS being remote and MES remaining face to face, we will not have to adjust our school calendar. Please contact your child’s campus for questions you may have. Thank you for your help and support as we deal with these new issues. Stay Safe, Stay Well & Stay Blessed, Mrs. Edwards

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!!!
