Come see Meridian Theatre Program put on Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap" Thursday, May 1st 6:30pm Friday, May 2nd 7:30pm Saturday, May 3rd 2:30pm Tickets available online (see the QR Code) and with Cash / Check at the door before each performance! The world's longest-running play! After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate. This record-breaking murder mystery features a brilliant surprise finish from Dame Agatha Christie, the foremost mystery writer of her time. #ReachHigher #MeridianMustangs

We are hosting Camp Invention at Meridian Elementary this summer. Camp is for kids going into Kindergarten-6th grade. You do not have to attend Meridian Schools to join camp.
We are also looking for Leaders-In-Training which is for students going into grades 7th-9th. Our Leaders-in-Training (LIT) program is a unique opportunity for students entering grades 7th – 9th to continue with and grow through the Camp Invention program. These students do NOT need to attend Meridian Schools either. If you have a kiddo entering grades 7th-9th that would like to join us please register them below...or reach out to me for more information!
The Leader-in-Training position is a parent-paid opportunity for middle school students to gain real-world leadership experience. Instead of participating in the daily activities as campers do, LITs serve as role models for the younger participants and focus on leadership development during the week. They also receive some exclusive materials and online training! The goal of the LIT program is to instill confidence in these young adults and provide them with valuable skills for the future.
Camp will be held at Meridian Elementary School July 14th-18th from 8:30 am-3:30 pm.
