2025-2026 Dance Team (rising 7-12) - Registration now open!

For the 2025-2026 season, Meridian Athletics hopes there is enough interest by qualified, committed dancers to form the Fierce Dance Team, which will be open to rising 7th-12th grade students. Due to low interest in the Spring Dance Clinic, which was subsequently cancelled, there is a possibility that Fierce Dance Team will not form for 2025-2026. For this reason, registration for 2025-2026 Dance Team has been moved up to Monday, March 31 through 9 p.m. on Thursday, April 10. A minimum of 15 qualified, committed dancers is required to register for the 2025-2026 Dance Team. Dance Team Registration

Welcome to Meridian Athletics!
 
Meridian Athletics Mission Statement: 
At Meridian School, we believe that students should balance the different aspects of their lives - intellectual, physical, and emotional - to achieve well-being and well-roundedness. Participation in competitive athletics and developmental sport experiences can contribute to this balance. The athletic experience will be provided within a nurturing environment that motivates the student athlete to view athletics and sports as life-long endeavors. Coaches will work with student athletes to aid their understanding of their strengths and weaknesses to enhance their personal development and improve their contribution to the success of the team. Win or lose, Meridian School will encourage student athletes to provide a winning effort, exhibit sportsmanship, enthusiasm, and demonstrate respect for all.
 
 
In 2023-2024, we supported approximately 600 student athletes across five sports: Basketball, Cross Country, Dance Team, Soccer, Tennis and Volleyball. In 2024-2025, we added Middle School Flag Football to the sports offerings! In 2025-2026, we hope to add a Varsity Flag Football team as well. Find our Sports here, See when to register here.
 
The Meridian Lions have 30 State Titles! Learn more about our accomplishments here.
