ATTENTION HAWK NATION!

Upon entry of a Meridian HS or MS athletic event, each student will receive a raffle ticket. Students will write their name on the back of the ticket and turn it into the concession stand for that game. At the end of the semester, each school (MES, MMS, MHS) will draw names for winners. This month, each school will have 2 winners of $25 Gift Cards to Krekels. The more games you attend, the better your chances. Students, mark your calendars for all of our home games. SEE YOU HERE!

This month's sponsor is brought to you by Matt Roush with Signature Sign and Lighting and Glenda Williamson.

Tonight is a great night to kick off the new drawing with home games for our MS AND HS girls' basketball.

The Meridian School District would like to thank Melanie and Al Schelling with State Farm Insurance for sponsoring our October 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 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!

Thank you Creation Station for joining us at our Little Hawks Family Night and inspiring our future students to develop their imagination and art skills while encouraging fine motor growth! 🎨
