Dear Mead Families,

It has been an incredible week of school spirit, hard work, and achievement across our campus. Here are a few highlights and upcoming events we are excited to share. Congratulations to our volleyball team on a fantastic season that culminated in a trip to the state playoffs! Our student-athletes showed up every day with grit, determination, and true teamwork. Huge congratulations to our Cheer team for winning the League Championship this week, and a big shout-out to our Dance team for a strong performance at league on Tuesday!

Come pack the stands this Saturday as our football team takes on Rifle in their first playoff game! Kickoff is at 1:00 PM, and we invite you to arrive early at 12:35 PM for a special pre-game ceremony honoring our veterans.

If you haven’t seen our theater department’s production of “The Bold, The Young, and The Murdered,” don’t miss your chance! It is a fantastic, hilarious show that will keep you laughing from start to finish. We hope that you can come out to join us tonight or Saturday night at 6:30 PM in the auditorium.

We are thrilled to share that over 550 students have registered to take more than 800 AP exams this May! We continue to see both our AP participation and pass rates climb. We are so proud of our students for challenging themselves with rigorous coursework to keep every post-secondary opportunity open.

Classified Staff Appreciation is next week, we will be celebrating our incredible classified staff. From our front office and paraprofessionals to our custodians, nutrition services, and campus supervisors, our school simply could not run without their dedication and care for our students. If you see them on campus next week, please join us in thanking them for all they do!

Thank you for your continued support of our students and programs. 

Warm Regards,

Lindsay LaPorte

Principal, Mead High School
