Meadville Elementary will host a Panther Picnic on April 3, 2026. During this time, students will rotate through fun math stations set up outside. Students will solve or respond to questions and then compete in fun challenges set up by the PE department. Every student will receive a free book to take home to add to their personal library and a math kit to create more math memories in the future. Parents may come at 12:30 to join in on the fun! All visitors must have an approved visitor form on file.
Dear Families,
Get ready—the Scholastic Discovery Fair is coming to our school! This STEAM-powered Book Fair is a great opportunity to get your child excited about science, technology, art, nature, and more with new books and kits they’ll dive into again and again. Just with our regular Fall Book Fair, the easiest way to shop the Fair is by creating a Book Fair eWallet. It’s easy to set up and easy for others to add funds. You can scan the QR code on the flyer that was sent home to do that. If you do not want to create an e-wallet, you can still shop with cash, check, or a credit/debit card.
Here’s everything else you need to know about the Discovery Fair:
Date: April 3rd during our Panther Picnic
Location: Library
More than ever, we need to get students reading and engaging in STEAM. Studies prove that children with more books at home have higher-level reading skills and attain more years of education overall.
Have fun discovering!

Students at Meadville enjoyed a Panther Fun Run during PE class for those who signed up with the fundraiser. The Run included obstacles for the students to enjoy as they ran. Laps were counted by using the Ipad and application that was purchased from last year's Fun Run. Students raised money per lap or with a flat donation. Even Mrs. Franco and several parents got in on the fun! Money raised will go toward equipment for Field Day and PE. A huge thanks to those who chose to participate!
Mrs. Hupp’s kindergarten class had so much fun graphing with Lucky Charms cereal to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day🍀. After completing their math activity, they enjoyed having the cereal for snack.
☘️ Mrs. Martin and Mrs. McGhee’s PreK class had the best time with this fun, hands-on St. Patrick’s Day activity! They used their fine motor skills and placed fruit loops on a pipe cleaner. Each student created a repeating pattern of their own. At the end of their pipe cleaner they placed two big marshmallows and had a beautiful rainbow. 🌈
