🌟 Introducing the Hoofprint Award 🌟
Tonight at the Meridian Public Schools Board of Education meeting, we proudly presented the first-ever Hoofprint Award to the incredible Gina Lewandowski! 🐴💙
Gina was nominated by a colleague who wrote:
“I don’t know what we would do without Gina. She facilitates student council, runs three levels of art in one class period, advises our seniors, pilots district initiatives—and still finds time to lead with love and hold her students to high expectations. She’s truly amazing.”
💬 MECHS Instructional Coach Emily Sanders and Principal Scott LaFever spoke passionately about Gina’s leadership in her classroom, student council, community events, school dances, the homecoming parade, the art show, and her compassion for students navigating tough times.
🎖Board President Steve Grubaugh presented the award, which honors individuals who leave a lasting mark on our school and community through empowerment, resilience, and fearless leadership. Gina exemplifies every part of what this award stands for.
🦶The Hoofprint Award is more than a recognition—it’s a symbol of Mustang pride, passion, and purpose. Just like a hoofprint marks the ground with strength and determination, recipients of this award leave an indelible mark on all of us.

We’re looking for donations of gently used, age-appropriate books to add to our collection. Our goal is to make sure every student can find a story that inspires them, sparks their imagination, and helps them discover the true love of reading. 💙 If you have books ready for a new home that may interest our students, please consider donating them to MJHS Library. Together, we can build a collection for all Mustangs to enjoy! 🐎 Books may be dropped off at the MJHS Office during school hours 8am-3pm. #MustangReaders #LibraryLove #BookDonation #MeridianMustangs #ReachHigher
Students in Mrs. Pashak's 6th and 7th grade science classes enjoyed a visit from Elizabeth Egan from the Society of Plastics Engineers and Plastivan. They learned about the chemistry, history, processing, manufacturing, and sustainability of plastics and how the science and real-world applications relate to their everyday lives. #ReachHigher #MeridianMustangs
