Just a reminder, we are scheduling PreK Screenings and 0-3 Screenings now. To be considered for our PreK program, you must have your child screened in March. Our August screening will only be for children that have just recently moved into the Meridian district. If you have a child age 0-3, they can be screened through Bright Start this month! See info below for details...


Reminder - Thurs. 3/16 is an 11:30 dismissal. No School on Fri. 3/17. Enjoy the long weekend!

Comfort Dog Yadi from PawPrint Ministries had a great visit with our students today!







Our Little Hawks Playgroup had special visitors this week! Coach S. brought his 3rd grade PE class to join up with our youngest Hawks! Each child was paired up with a buddy for some gym time fun!











Bright Start will hold a Birth to 3 screening on Thursday, March 30 and Friday, March 31. If you live in the Meridian school district and have a child that is age 0-3 they can participate in this free developmental screening. This service will be held at the same time as our preschool screening at the Pleasant View Community Building (the old school) in Blue Mound. Parents will remain with their child as trained screeners evaluate developmental progress. The process will take about 30 minutes. You may set up an appointment starting March 13th by calling 692-2535, ext. 244. You can call this number anytime between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Little Hawks will be hosting a Youth Sports Night for parents with children age 0-PreK. RSVP required so we can plan for enough food. Hear from organizations, such as The Meridian Ball Association, Decatur Park District, YMCA, Co-County Youth Volleyball, A&M Area Soccer League, and PSF Moweaqua (martial arts)!
