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!

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 October, each school (MES, MMS, MHS) will draw names for winners. This month, each school will have 4 winners of $25 Amazon Gift Card. 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 Al and Melanie Schelling with State Farm Insurance.
Tonight is a great night to kick off the home games for the Month of October. The MS girls' basketball team will play MF and our HS volleyball team will pay WL.

Our students have started the year strong by working on both math and ELA skills through personalized learning plans on IXL. Each month, the students are challenged to increase their diagnostic score by 10 points in both subjects. The data has been collected for August and September, and we are thrilled to see so many students meet or exceed that goal in both math and ELA! 97 students will receive a treat in class for meeting their goal!
Congratulations to our TOP 3 proficiency leaders on the August/September IXL Leaderboard -
Math: Kynleigh G, McKenna J, & Beau G
ELA: Natalie V, Kyleigh W, & Noah H
New this year - The class that becomes proficient in the most skills will receive the "bragging rights" IXL trophy to display in class for the month. Mrs. Houser's 1st hour 7th grade pre-algebra math class received the IXL Math Trophy (an average of 6.9 skills/student) and Mrs. Rhoades' 7th hour 6th grade literature class earned the IXL ELA Trophy (an average of 12.9 skills/student).
Way to grow!

Last night our gym was filled with loyal and supportive fans cheering on our MMS girls' basketball team. The 7th and 8th grade both won hard fought games against Pana. We are so proud of them!
Special shout out to our rowdy MS and HS boys as they let our girls' team know they could be counted on as loud voices of support. Keep it up boys!
Another special shout out to Shelby Renfro and Julia Meisenhelter for being the refs for our 6th grade team. They are great role models for our younger players as they demonstrated acts of service and leadership for our program. Thank you girls!

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!
