Meridian CUSD #15 is proud to announce that the Illinois Principals Association has selected Meridian Middle School Principal, Mindy McGuire, as the Abe Lincoln Region Middle School Principal of the Year. Mrs. McGuire is in her sixth year serving as MMS Principal. Prior to that, she served MMS as a math teacher for eleven years.
The Illinois Principals Association is a statewide organization with 21 regions. Annually, each region recognizes an elementary school, middle school, and high school principal of the year. The Abe Lincoln region is made up of Menard, Sangamon, Logan, Christian, Dewitt, Piatt, Moultrie, Shelby, and Macon counties. Of the recognition, Mrs. McGuire remarked, “Our region consists of a lot of really great administrators, so I’m honored to be recognized by the IPA. Meridian Middle School has some of the very best teachers, staff members, and students. I feel very fortunate to be the building principal and have the opportunity to positively impact the education and support we offer daily. The middle school years are some of the most important and, at times, can be the most challenging, so I truly can’t imagine working with a different group of students. I look forward to continuing to work with our administrative team as we look for ways we can continue to improve the educational experience we provide at Meridian.”
Jeanne Irby has an extra $25 to spend this holiday season! Thanks for purchasing a ticket from our raffle fundraiser! Thanks to Alex K. for drawing today's winner!
