Alumni, mark your calendars for our 3rd annual Meadowridge Giving Day! Tune in on Tuesday, November 29 as we celebrate Meadowridge Giving Day, a day dedicated to giving back to the place you called home for so many years. Remember the playground you used to play on long ago as a Meadowridge student? Well, it’s time for a new one this year as we’ve exceeded the life span of our current one. This Giving Day, we’re fundraising for a new playground, and we need your help to make it happen! For 24 hours on Giving Day, you’ll be met with inspiring stories, entertaining posts, and performances from our students and teachers. Give big or give small, it’s not about the amount, but all about unleashing the power of what we can accomplish together with every single dollar. Alumni, make Meadowridge Giving Day your day to give back!

Expansion News
School may be out for the summer, but there’s still lots of activity happening here on campus. With an expansion to prepare for and classes starting back up in the fall, July and August will be busy months here at Meadowridge. Though we won’t be breaking ground until later this year, construction has already started on some of the smaller projects that will prepare us for the start of the campaign. As Mr. Banack detailed in his Community Information Session, all of these projects—those big and those small—slot into the larger building timeline as we work towards adding and renovating six purpose-built spaces for our students and our school. Find out what’s happening on campus with an update from our Audacity Ambassadors, Mrs. Danielle Christensen and Mr. Brian Spear!
