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:

Meridian CUSD 223’s Monroe Center School Library has decided to hold a Read-A-Thon this year!
Read-A-Thons actually get your reader excited about reading, and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child to read even more.
Our Read-A-Thon starts Monday, March 2, 2026.
About one week before our Read-A-Thon starts, we will send home instructions on how to activate your reader's personal page. This is where you can view and record their progress.
We encourage you to activate your reader’s account today by clicking on https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/323332323936/1?utm=email and following the simple instructions.
We've chosen Read-A-Thon because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read, and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.
We hope EVERYONE participates.
Thanks so much,
Meridian CUSD 223 Libraries
