The Johnson County School District wishes our Golden Eagles a happy and healthy 2026!

The Johnson County School District extends its deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Dotty Meek. Dotty served the Johnson County School District at Meade Memorial Elementary, where she forged lifelong friendships and exemplified a quiet strength that defined her impact on the school community. She was preceded in death by her husband, former Johnson County School Board member Harry Meek. The flag will fly at half-staff on Thursday, January 1, in her honor.

As we close 2025, we celebrate the momentum across our school community where students and educators learn, grow, and lead. Golden Eagles, may this season be blessed with peace, joy, and purpose.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Johnson County School District.
