Hurricane Melissa Recovery

The Merl Grove High School Past Students’ Associations Joint Committee regrets to announce the cancellation of the 2025 Founder’s Week Homecoming Luncheon and Fashion Show, which was scheduled to be held in celebration of our annual homecoming activities.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, our immediate priority has shifted to supporting the recovery and restoration efforts at Merl Grove High School. While we share in the disappointment of not gathering this year, we believe this decision reflects our collective commitment to the school’s welfare and to standing together during this challenging time. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to all families and communities affected by the hurricane.

We extend heartfelt thanks to all who had pledged support, purchased tickets, or contributed in any way. Your generosity and enthusiasm remain deeply appreciated.

Further updates will be shared regarding new dates or alternate fundraising initiatives to assist in the school’s recovery.

As always, we remain united in the Merl Grove spirit — guided by our motto, “Labor Omnia Vincit” (Hard Work Overcomes All Difficulties).
