Students who attended any Meridian home game had an opportunity to write their name on a ticket and turn it in for a chance to win at the end of October. Every game attended meant more chances.
We were able to draw 4 winners from each school. Each winner won a $25 Amazon gift card.
This Month's winners are: Wyatt L., Harrison N., Malachi W., Brooklynn Z., Jarrett K., Cali S., Lukas S., Qwyn W., Arianna H., Maggie S., Christian S. and Weston R.
We will continue our athletic attendance drawing for November. Stay tuned for our new sponsor.
Remember the more you attend games....the better your chances. Good luck and go Hawks!
Go get it McKenna!
Hawk Nation, mark your calendars for next Friday, November 14th. You are invited to Green and White Night!
To kick off our Winter Sports Programs we will be holding an event where we recognize all of our MS/HS Boys/Girls basketball and Cheerleading programs including the youth league.
In addition to announcing the teams, spectators will get to enjoy two varsity level scrimmages . One scrimmage will be the boys' varsity squad and the other one will include a co-ed varsity scrimmage.
Also included will be a "Community Hot Shot Challenge" which will include giving visitors a chance to hit half court shots. There will be other attractions there to make this a fun event.
Hawk Nation, please consider joining us on Green and White Night!
Go Hawks!

The football game was a big event today, but there are other parts of our school and community that are rocking it too!
Big shout out to Brandon Chappell! He is the voice of Meridian Football. He is the one you hear in the press box making the announcements for the game and for general information. He is such an important part of all of our home games. We are lucky to have him. Thanks Brandon!
The cheerleaders keep the energy going all game. They practice for countless hours to be the voice for our teams and to keep the community spirit going. The players should be very thankful for them. Big shout out to Coach Bickel and Coach Marion. Thank you girls and good job!
Dr. Raymond has the band sounding great this year. They are "locked-in" to all the games and they have a great feel for when to play their music to keep things bumping. Great job band...you sound great and getting better as we go!
Our Booster Club members and volunteers may be the busiest group off all. They have a well- oiled machine in the concession stand to make sure you have salty popcorn, a fully loaded nacho, and your favorite sugary drink ready to go when you need it. A true definition of behind the scenes workers.
New to this game was our "end zone couch club" made up of various rowdy fans. Thanks for your support students and we hope to carry on this tradition next year.
Hawk Nation, thank you for all of your support and dedication to our school this Fall. Good luck to our soccer team today as they play for a regional championship. Good luck to our volleyball team on Monday as they begin post-season. Good luck to the football team today was we look for a playoff berth.
Stay tuned everyone!!
On Monday the 27th our volleyball team will begin post-season play against Greenview. The game will be at Unity Christian at 6pm. Good luck girls!
Our football team is currently waiting on results from other teams to see the status of our post-season play. The boys finished the regular season strong, with a commanding win against St. Thomas More (48-14). Good luck boys!
