ESU 13 Meridian Program

Behind every great project are the people who make it happen. 💙

The new Meridian playground came to life this summer thanks to the hard work of our Facilities & Maintenance Crew, the dedication of Meridian staff and ESU 13 employees, and the generosity of volunteers and community partners.

A special thanks also goes to our business partners — Bluffs Tree Service and 5 S Lawn Care — for your support in making this project possible. 🌟

Because of YOU, our students now have a safe, inclusive, and joyful place to play, learn, and grow.

Today, our students brought music, talent, and heart to the stage at the Meridian Spring Concert & Talent Show! The event opened with a beautiful bell concert, followed by a video showcase of student talents and skills—and wrapped up with some truly impressive live performances.

From start to finish, our students shined with confidence and creativity. We’re so proud of each and every one of them!

Thank you to our staff, families, and supporters for helping us make this day so special. 💙🎵

Today our amazing Meridian students took a big step toward independence and confidence; they went to Runza and placed their own orders using their AAC devices! 💬🍔🥤

Both students did a phenomenal job communicating their choices, and the joy on their faces said it all. 😊 Their hard work, courage, and bright spirits shined through. We are so proud of how they used their voices to be heard and understood.

Way to go, AAC Rock Stars! 💪👏

👏 Shoutout to our amazing Meridian students who represented our school at the Educational Service Unit 13 Job Expo! They engaged with professionals, learned essential job skills, and connected with local trades and training programs.

Events like this help build confidence, purpose, and career awareness for our students with IEPs. Thank you, ESU 13, for leading the way!
