“Meridian is different from other schools in how it is able to scaffold learners for high academic achievement, while also offering a calming and loving space to be exactly who each child is.”

“Lots of schools are great for specific kinds of kids, but we wanted a school that was great for lots of kinds of kids. What helped us choose Meridian was hearing from parents who had multiple children enrolled and felt like their very different kinds of kids were all flourishing.”

“They provide the best environment possible, for learning, yes, but also for growing up. It’s the kind of place where teachers know you not just by name, but by your strengths, your passions, and the quirky little things that make you አንተ” በማለት ተናግሯል።

“My husband and I have said so many times, ‘We’re so glad he moved to Meridian.’ The transition wasn’t easy for him, but he left a different kid. More confident, thoughtful, and happy. We’ve experienced four different elementary schools, and Meridian is by far the most special.“

“Meridian is uniquely Seattle in its setting, its staffing, its vibe and its curriculum. It reflects the open-minded, curious, rugged and individual place where our kids and their families live. It’s not trying to be an elementary prep school or a wanna-be east coast boarding school…it is unpretentious, authentic and still so smart. It’s like the CEO who keeps her Volvo for 15 years and wears Patagonia to meetings because those things serve her needs and style best.”

“We are impressed with the dedication of the teachers, the global citizen ethos of the curriculum, the strong emphasis on caring for others and social justice, the focus on the arts and STEM, and the ability to differentiate learning within the classroom so that our kids (who tested into the HCC program in SPS) are being challenged with special projects, extension work, and small group breakouts during the school day.”
