No School on Friday April 19th due to Teacher In-Service


Book Vending Machine - new at Sturgis Elementary!


The Meade School Board members approved to amend the 2023-24 academic calendar at the April 8 board meeting, resulting in the last day for students being scheduled for TUESDAY, MAY 21, with a 2-hour early dismissal!!

The Meade School District School Board cordially invites the public to the Staff Retirement & Recognition Reception to honor the Meade School District 2023-24 employees who are retiring, those who have worked 15, 20, 30, 35, 40 years and those who have been selected as teacher and professional-technical support staff of the year.
This year the banquet will be held the morning of Wednesday, May 22 at 8:00 am in the West Gym at Sturgis Brown High School. A breakfast bar will be served by our very own Lori Jeffery-Kirk!
This free event is open to the public. Family members or general public must make reservations by calling the superintendent’s office at 605-347-2523, ext. 1, or email tanya.ludwick@k12.sd.us.
