👏 A huge thank you to our students, staff, and families who made this evening a success! Events like these remind us of the power of learning together and celebrating history in engaging ways.

🌟 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.
