- Compassionate Community Members: A strong sense of community is at the heart of Meridian. Students learn the importance of empathy, teamwork, and leadership through collaborative projects and service initiatives.
- Global Citizens: From local community service to global studies, our students develop an awareness of their impact on the world and learn to be thoughtful, engaged citizens.

Nurturing Lifelong Learners
At the core of Meridian’s philosophy lies the nurturing relationship between teachers and students. Small class sizes ensure that students not only thrive academically but also feel intellectually and emotionally supported and secure.
Tailored for All Learners
Meridian’s commitment to each student’s growth is reinforced by collaboration between classroom teachers and learning specialists. Together, they create inclusive environments with targeted interventions and extensions to ensure every learner thrives. Ongoing assessments and small-group instruction help us adapt to students’ evolving needs, keeping them engaged and challenged.
Social-Emotional Learning
Our school emphasizes the equal importance of academic and social-emotional learning. Social-emotional development is integrated into daily activities and shapes our school-wide culture, with a focus on joy to create a positive, engaging environment where students thrive.
Our full-time psychologist supports classroom instruction and small-group counseling for students and families. Individualized support is available as needed, ensuring a collaborative, supportive, and joyful learning experience.
Global Perspective & Local Impact
As global systems evolve, Meridian’s education approach remains dynamic and forward-thinking. We teach through a global competency lens, helping students understand the interconnectedness of social, environmental, and technological systems. Our goal is to empower students to think globally while acting locally to drive positive change in their communities.
Project-based learning, field trips, expert visits, and immersive experiences enrich our interdisciplinary curriculum. This approach ensures that students not only grasp global challenges but also develop actionable solutions to make a difference locally and prepare themselves as future community leaders and changemakers.
