The Hive Happenings

Meridian High School had their first successful pep rally in the elementary gym. The theme for the pep rally was to "Demolish the Eagles." All of the students at MISD were able to participate in the pep rally festivities.

The Varsity football team competed recently against Bruceville-Eddy. The boys had a strong beginning performance. We are looking forward to a great football year.

The first "Fun Friday" will take place at MHS on Sept. 20th. Students will participate in fun activities throughout the day to celebrate good attendance and their hard work for the 6 weeks. This activity will take place at least once per six weeks.

Parents it is important that when a student is absent, either a doctor note or a parent excuse is sent to the front office. Thank you for working together to make MHS the best high school around!
