Meridian Proud!!

Here is a photo dump from just the past few days at our school. These are extra-curricular moments that are just fun and makes one proud to be in this community. These are your kids Hawk Nation!

We had 8 MS girls sing the National Anthem together and it was a powerfully awesome rendition that moved the whole gym.

We had 2 HS girls' basketball members ref MS girls' basketball games. What an awesome example!

We had a whole host of MS and HS students cheering on the MS basketball team.

We had several HS students dress up in camo to cheer on the VB Team. (Didn't get a picture, sorry)

Our football team and cheer team went to the elementary school this morning to give high-fives to our younger students. You know that had to brighten their day!

We had a practice time dedicated to helping the powder puff players get ready for their big game at next week's homecoming. They practiced running routes and learned some football plays from some of our football team members.

There was just a lot going on around here this week.

It would be awesome to see our community gather around our students next week to help support them during homecoming. If you are a former Meridian grad, from out of town, please consider coming back to attend our parade or any of our home events. Hope to see you here!

Parade -Wednesday at 5:30pm in Macon
Boys' Volleyball- Wednesday at 6:30pm in HS gym

The Meridian School District would like to thank Blackland Transport and Kraft Family Grain for sponsoring our September athletic attendance event drawing. We also want to thank all students (and the rest of Hawk Nation) who showed support this month.

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 September. 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: Adaline M., Azaylea J., Mack G., Macklin W., Hudson N., McKenna J., Bella D., Javen A., Jordin O., Bella D., Lucas R., and Hanna S.

We will continue our athletic attendance drawing for October. Stay tuned for our new sponsor.

Remember the more you attend games....the better your chances. Good luck and go Hawks!

The City of Macon is applying for a federal Safe Routes to Schools grant worth up to $250,000. If successful, grant funds will be used for upgrades to sidewalks throughout Macon. We need your help to gather the necessary information to include with the grant submission. All are encouraged to complete the survey as sidewalks are used for more than just getting to and from school. At times staff members take students off campus for various reasons, so ultimately all of our students will most likely benefit from the City successfully receiving this grant.

Please take a few moments to complete this survey. If you have more than one child, a submission for each student is encouraged.

Thank you Okaw Valley Orchard for another awesome educational tour of the orchard for our PreK students. They toured the orchard and facilities, observed bees up close, viewed the apple cider machines/packing shed, walked inside a huge cooler, and even got to taste test some apple cider donuts and apple cider! The playground was also a hit! We appreciate your hospitality!!

This group will be performing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch. We are proud of these kids and excited for them to represent Meridian.

Tomorrow, the Cardinals take on the Reds at 12:15.
Go Cards and Go Meridian!

Meridian HS had some special visitors over Labor Day weekend. The Atlanta Braves P.R. team came out to do a story on their manager Brian Snitker who was a part of our school's well known 1971 State Championship Finals baseball team. This is the story that inspired the book "One Shot at Forever." Snitker's wife Ronnie, was here to do the interview as well as some of the members of that team, including the 1971 coach, Mr. Sweet. Some of the memorabilia including the 1971 trophy and book are located in our trophy case. Check it out the next time you are here.

Hometown hero, Brian Snitker has been very gracious with his Snitker Foundation. The foundation has allowed our baseball field to have a wonderful scoreboard as well as facility and equipment updates. Meridian is very thankful for his generosity.

You can view some of the footage of the PR event in the Facebook link below. Some pictures of this weekend's event are also attached.
