The MJHS Lighthouse Team kicked off the season with a festive Holiday Breakfast as they put the finishing touches on planning this Friday’s Holiday Assembly! Ana and her family even created fun t-shirts for the team to wear!

From funny jokes and fun games to a special departing poem to send everyone into break with smiles, this team has been working hard to create a memorable celebration for our students and staff.

We can’t wait to share the joy, laughter, and school spirit this Friday at Meridian Junior High!

How do you keep 7th grade science interesting and engaging when talking about force and motion the week prior to winter break? You include a zip line and the famous Elf from the shelf and allow students to demonstrate their understanding of the relationship of mass and acceleration! The winning group had a time of 2.50 seconds!
