📚✨ School Board Appreciation Month Spotlight ✨📚
This month, we are proud to highlight the dedicated individuals who help lead our district. Today, we’re shining the spotlight on Joshua Ruiz!
We are grateful for Joshua’s commitment to Meadow ISD and his dedication to serving our students and community.

“I served on the school board because I believe in our kids and in Meadow ISD. Having graduated from Meadow, I know firsthand the impact strong schools and dedicated educators can have. Now, as a parent raising the next generation of Meadow Broncos through my daughters, this commitment is even more personal. I take great pride in our community and am dedicated to making decisions that always put students first and strengthen our schools for the future.”
📘 What was your favorite subject in school?
“My favorite subject was Science, and I also enjoyed participating in sports and FCCLA.”
Thank you, Joshua, for your leadership, service, and commitment to Meadow ISD! 💜💛

🏀 Bronco Jr. High Basketball vs. Wellman 🏀
It was a great night on the court yesterday!
💜 Girls B Team picked up a big win, 21–17
💛 Girls A Team battled hard for a close victory, 44–41
The boys B and A teams came up short, but they played with heart and determination until the final buzzer.
Proud of the effort from all our Broncos!






🧪🌍 Mrs. Gamez’s 5th grade students spent two days diving into hands-on science learning!
Day 1: Students created a fossil fuel model using different types of bread slices and Swedish Fish 🥪🐟. They rubbed their hands together to create heat 🔥 and then placed heavy books on top overnight to represent pressure over time.
Day 2: Students gently pulled off the top layer of bread and carefully observed what the bread and gummies looked like after heat and pressure were applied 🧠.







Bronco Basketball tips off TODAY at the Bronco Gymnasium!
⭐ Varsity Girls will take on Wellman at 6:00 PM in their first district opener
⭐ Varsity Boys will face O’Donnell at 7:30 PM
Let’s pack the gym, show our Bronco pride, and cheer loud for our teams! 💜💛

🌙 Mrs. Gamez’s students got hands-on with science by using Oreo cookies to model the different phases of the moon! Learning is always sweeter when it’s fun and interactive. 🍪✨







🏀 JH Bronco Basketball is headed to Wellman Union today!
Let’s wish our Broncos the best of luck as they hit the court.
💜💛 Go Broncos! 💛💜

Coach Alaniz’s Senior Government class was asked to choose a famous person to write a letter to. Senior Melody Garcia chose Adam Sandler. Students were tasked with asking how their chosen person became successful and if they could go back to being 18 years old in high school, what advice they would give for life.”
While Mel didn’t receive a letter back, she did receive a autograph postcard from Adam Sandler in the mail! What an exciting and memorable surprise for her and a great reminder to take chances—you never know what might happen! 🎬✨

🌟 Meadow ISD Bronco Trailblazers! 🌟
This award recognizes students who go above and beyond — hardworking, respectful, and well-rounded role models on campus. Meadow teachers nominate students who are doing great things and showing what it means to be a GREAT BRONCO every day! 💜💛
🎉 Bronco Trailblazers:
Cyrus Garcia goes above and beyond as a manager for the varsity basketball team, always making sure the players and coaches are taken care of. He’s also a great student that always has a smile on his face. He’s also deserves to be recognized for his great work ethic and character as a person.
I am honored to nominate Melanie Calhoun for the Bronco Trailblazers award. I have known Melanie for several years, and throughout that time she has consistently maintained a positive attitude and strong work ethic. In class, she has often been my voice of reason—thoughtful, dependable, and always willing to support others. This semester, Melanie has truly stepped into a leadership role. She serves as an editor for the Bronco Roundup newsletter and has taken initiative by photographing games on the basketball court, helping showcase school spirit and student achievement. Her dedication and professionalism set her apart as a role model for her peers. Melanie is a student all others should strive to be like. She has clear goals and is already working toward them, with plans to attend Texas A&M University in the Fall of 2027. As a junior, she balances academics, leadership, and extracurricular responsibilities with grace, making even the busiest schedule look effortless. I am incredibly proud of Melanie and all she has accomplished. She embodies the qualities of determination, leadership, and positivity—she is truly the definition of a Bronco Trailblazers.
👏 Congratulations, Trailblazers! Keep shining and inspiring others every day!
A special Thank You to Bahama Bucks for donating incentives to our Bronco Trailblazer award! ✨

The first drop-off of the year can feel heavier than anticipated.
Coming off Christmas Break, with so many things happening around us, and after weeks of closeness, changed routines, and shared comfort, that separation can hit hard — for both children and parents.
This isn’t a setback or failure; it’s simply the nervous system readjusting to new demands.
We can’t wait to see all our Broncos tomorrow! 💜💛
