Club Fair
The school year has ignited with an electrifying energy! Club Fair is happening all this week! During lunch, students are invited to the Auditorium to check out the many clubs that MEA has to offer for the 2024-2025 school year. Grab some popcorn, visit with classmates, and check out the club showcased at the event. This is an excellent way to get involved on campus and meet other MEA students that share your interests.

Malala Foundation

Malala and Ziauddin Yousafzai founded Malala Fund in 2013 to champion every girl’s right to 12 years of free, safe, quality education. Together our board, leadership council, staff and champions are creating a more equal world by making sure all girls can go to school.
