Congratulations to the Mustang Marching Band on a stellar performance last night at Showcase!

Dear Families, Staff, and Community Members,
In response to survey feedback from our stakeholders, Meridian Public Schools is streamlining our communication channels by consolidating all social media activity to a single page. Starting Monday, September 30th, 2024, please join us at our unified page, Meridian Public Schools (@MeridianPS), for clear, consistent updates for families, students, staff, and community members. However, the Meridian Early Childhood Center page will remain available for families to view for childcare purposes.
As part of this change, we will be deactivating the current pages for Meridian Elementary School, Meridian Junior High School, and Meridian Early College High School. To stay connected, follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/MeridianPS and Instagram at www.instagram.com/MeridianPS.
