Meridian has a couple of employment opportunities!
MMS student schedules for the 26/27 school year are now accessible on TeacherEase! If there is an error, please email mcguirem@meridianhawks.net so that corrections can be made. Registration will begin online through TeacherEase on Monday. The MMS building will also be open all next week for students to practice locker combinations, drop off supplies, and walk through schedules. Please note the evening hours when the building will be open on Wednesday. We are looking forward to having students back in the hallways soon!
The menu for day three consisted of an Italian marinated roasted chicken sandwich, Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, macaroni amd cheese, steamed broccoli, cornbread, blueberry muffins, and a remake of yesterday's chicken strips with some additional seasoning!
The middle school baseball season will be kicking off on Snitker Field at the beginning of next week with tryouts. There will be a pre-season baseball camp offered on Friday and Saturday. Make sure to get these dates and times written down if you child plans to participate! Don't forget - All athletes must have an updated physical (within the calendar year) on file prior to tryouts. Physicals can be turned in to Coach Britton on the first day. Go Hawks!
Today's menu for the food service training was french toast casserole, chicken strips, chicken caesar salad wrap, tomato soup, blueberry muffins, stir fry veggies, salad (with house made dressing), and fresh fruit!
Our food service staff started a four day scratch cooking training today with the Sustainable Food Institute. They did a phenomenal job with the first day's menu! Spaghetti with scratch made meat sauce, house made alfredo, roasted zucchini and green beans, fruit, salad with house made dressings, and a peach crisp that was to die for. As we are rolling this out, our goal is to transition from frozen heat and serve foods to locally sourced scratch made fresh foods.
Below is a message from Coach Johnson in regards to MS Softball.
Due to the extreme heat warning, today’s tryout will take place in the high school gym. Times will remain the same (3–5 PM).
All athletes need to wear tennis shoes and softball pants, and bring their own face mask and glove. Please enter from the high school side.
If your physical has been updated since last year, and have not turned it in yet, you must bring a copy with you before practice. If you would prefer, you can send an electronic copy to brittonb@meridianhawks.net.

Below is a message from Coach Wells about this Summer's work outs.
As girls middle school basketball summer sessions come to a close, the excitement builds for our upcoming season. With an average of 17 girls per session, the girls worked hard to refine skills and build team chemistry. Great work girls! Meridian girls basketball has a bright future!

Hawk Nation,
As we continue through the Summer, please be mindful of scheduling your sports physicals.
If you are still in need of a physical, the next walk-in opportunity will be held at CAM HS on July 14th from 2:00–4:00 PM.
Reminder: Sports physicals are valid for most middle school and high school students. However, students entering 6th grade and students entering their Freshman year must have a school physical completed through their primary healthcare provider.
Please plan accordingly as we get closer to the start of the fall season.
Go Hawks!

With last night's devastating event, I can't say enough about this community! In less than 24 hours, we were able to clean up a large portion of the debris outside and the water inside. Damage to the school is significant, but efforts are currently underway to make the building water tight so there is no further damage. Moving forward we are working with the architect and insurance company to determine the scope of work that will be necessary to bring back all of the building systems that have been affected. Once we have the full scope of work required, we will be able to plan for what the start of the school year looks like. Meridian (and surrounding communities) thank you for your help with this devastating event.
MESSAGE FOR TOMORROW (THURSDAY, JUNE 18TH).
