In a generous effort to support the Meridian Volleyball team, Krekel's donated an ice-cream cone to each student who rode the fan bus over to Sullivan to watch the Sectional Championship. The kids thought this was pretty cool.
Next time you are at Krekel's buying one of their famous cheeseburgers, be sure to say thanks for their support.
Thank you Krekel's!

IAR testing will take place at MMS this week. All grade levels and students will test in both math and reading. A modified bell schedule will be followed so that students can attend each class daily. Testing will begin first thing each morning, so please make sure your child arrives at school no later than 7:40 a.m. so they have enough time to get to their testing location. Incentives will be given daily for students who have good attendance, effort, and attitude. All students must have a CHARGED Chromebook and a pair of wired earbuds (we have these for those who need them). Please check with your child each night to ensure their Chromebook is charging for testing days!
