The TEA just issued guidance that schools are allowed to continue mandating mask wearing. Meridian will continue to require masks on campus, based upon safety guidelines from the CDC.

Submit your thoughts regarding our Equity Vision Statement draft by March 22.
We are also proud to share the video our Meridian choir made in honor of Black History Month. Students, staff, parents, and alumni sang, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," known as the Black National Anthem. We shared the video and why the song means so much to those who worked on it during student assemblies last week.

The masks come in a pack of 3 for $20 and proceeds from the mask sales go toward next year’s 8th/9th grade field trip. The masks will be delivered to your child at school or available for pick-up for distance learners after spring break.
