Good morning Mustangs,
Due to icy and snow covered road conditions Meridian Public Schools will be operating on a 2-hour delay today Monday, January 13, 2025. Drive careful and stay safe!

As part of his Senior Portfolio, Kamren DeFever had the opportunity to job shadow Superintendent Glann, gaining valuable firsthand insights into the world of educational leadership.
For the past two years, Kamren has been a dedicated student in the Careers in Education CTE Program at Bullock Creek High School, offered through the Midland County CTE Consortium. His passion for teaching shines brightly as he has gained practical, hands-on experience at Meridian Junior High School. During this time, Kamren has made a meaningful impact in Mrs. Plesko’s 8th Grade Science class and Mr. Jaworski’s 5th Grade Social Studies class, inspiring students and honing his skills as an educator.
Kamren plans to continue his journey by pursuing a teacher preparatory program after high school. We are excited to watch his future unfold and can’t wait to see the incredible difference he will make in the field of education! 🎓✨
