A big thank you to the PTO, SRO Kingham, and Royal Blue for helping make Principal for a Day such a fantastic experience for Emmett! 🎉
Principal Emmett jumped right into the role by helping with morning announcements, passing out supplies, and walking the hallways to check in with students and staff. He did an amazing job leading for the day!
Thank you to all the families who purchased tickets and supported the PTO through this fun event. Your support helps create memorable experiences for our students and school community!












Lincoln was recognized at last night’s Board of Education meeting, and we couldn’t be prouder of the impact he is making within our school community. We would also like to recognize the support and encouragement of his teacher, Mrs. Burke, and extend a special thank-you to Lincoln’s family for supporting this initiative and encouraging his leadership. Together, these efforts remind us how even small acts of service can make a big difference for others.
Way to go, Lincoln! 📚💙

To our Meridian CUSD 223 families,
We're very excited about our upcoming Read-A-Thon fundraiser and want to share an amazing opportunity for local businesses. If you own, manage, or know of a business that would like to support our school libraries, consider becoming a Read-A-Thon sponsor. By becoming a sponsor, a business will gain exposure to thousands of individuals who are all passionate about supporting literacy and our community.
Hurry, as there are only a limited number of digital and printed sponsorship spots available, including an exclusive Literacy Champion sponsorship. Reserve sponsorship spots today by clicking here. As always, we extend our heartfelt thanks for your support of our school community.
Warm regards,
Meridian CUSD 223 Libraries

It's almost time for the Meridian CUSD 223 Libraries' Read-A-Thon this year!
Monroe Center School's Read-A-Thon begins on Monday, March 2, 2026, and is sure to be a fun and exciting event.
We understand that your time is valuable. We also know that providing the best education for your child is important. That's why we are encouraging everyone to activate their student's Read-A-Thon account as soon as possible. The instructions are straightforward, making it quick and hassle-free, and it should take less than 5 minutes of your time.
This account will serve as a hub for recording and monitoring your child's progress as a Reader in the event, and for you to share their Read-A-Thon message with friends and family. Use the link below to activate your student's Reader account:
