From Mrs. Conley, Jefferson West Blood Drive Coordinator…
Thank you for everything you did today – from donating blood to allowing students to miss class throughout the day to help out and donate themselves. We collected 46 units of blood as a community, and I was encouraged each time I stopped by the gym to see such a variety of people donating. These combined efforts make our community stronger!

Calling all Jefferson West grades, sports teams, school groups, and community members! Create a parade float to compete for cash prizes and bragging rights! Line-up is at the Middle School parking lot to participate. Parade route will follow the High School Homecoming parade route.
Let’s make this the largest Christmas Parade Meriden has ever seen! The “Old-Fashioned Christmas Parade & Tree Lighting” will be held on Sunday, December 1st at 4pm. Come enjoy hot chocolate, photos with Santa and giveaways.
If you have any questions or need additional information, contact Jessica Schenkel at 785-817-8877. This event is sponsored by the Meriden Association for Community Events.


Jefferson West High School Theatre Troupe presents “The Auditioners” by David Rand on Saturday, November 16th, at 7pm in the High School Commons. There will also be a matinee showing on Sunday, November 17th, at 2pm.
The audition was supposed to be simple: prepare one classical monologue and one contemporary monologue. But when this challenge is taken up by a beauty queen, a stand-up comic, a slam poet, an Esperanto-speaking mime, and a parade of other crazies -- most of whom insist on doing the same Lady Macbeth piece very badly -- what's a director to do?
Admission is $5/Adult and $3/Student (K-12).


A special Board of Education meeting has been scheduled for Thursday, 11/14, 6pm, at Jefferson West High School.
