Meridian Public Schools Honors School Board Members for Annual Recognition Month
“In another year full of challenges for public education, our school board members persevered through the adversity of 2022 to provide the best possible education for our students,” said Interim Superintendent Sarah Glann. “Celebrating School Board Recognition Month is one of the very small ways to express appreciation for all they do. Too often, the efforts of school board members go unrecognized .”
Meridian Public School's Board of Education is composed of seven members:
Michael Bowen - President, 28 1/2 years of service, Stephen Grubaugh - Vice President, 6 years of service, Rebecca Hitsman - Treasurer, 11 years of service,
Dennis Cole - Secretary, 21 1/2 years of service, Kristina Brawt - Trustee, 3 1/2 years of service, Megan Clark - Trustee, 2 years of service, Janice Goodall - Term ended 12/31/2022 after 9 yrs of service, and Jennifer Holzinger - Newly Elected Trustee as of 1/01/2023
We thank you and appreciate you!

Good Evening Mustangs,
The FCC has created a national broadband map that displays where internet services are—and are not—available across the United States, as reported by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in the FCC’s ongoing Broadband Data Collection. This map (https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov) will be used to help determine future broadband expansion efforts and billions in grant funding to close the digital divide. Please consider checking the accuracy at your home address, as well as neighbors, family, friends, etc. If you find any inaccuracies, you can submit a location challenge through the website before the January 13, 2023 deadline.
Thank you

Hello Mustangs! As the start of the school year approaches, we have news to share with you from our Food Service Department. Please see the information below.
With the end of the 2021-2022 school year, also brought the end of the free meals for all students. Congress did not renew this program, meaning we are returning to the free and reduced lunch program. All students will still get a free breakfast, but not lunches. We are asking all families to fill out a free and reduced lunch application whether you think you qualify or not. The portal for doing all things food service is now https://meridian.familyportal.cloud. Parents will register for an account and be able to fill out the free/reduced application, see what students are purchasing for lunch, add funds to lunch accounts (no longer on e-funds) and more. Any questions can be sent to the food service department at foodservice@merps.org or 989-687-3212. Thank you. #ReachHigher
