Meridian Elementary School

Based on the teachers we received, our experience was the worst we could imagine for our child. She currently attends another school and it's a much better fit. She is now learning so much more.

Currently we would rate it a 10/10. We love our child’s first grade teacher! We also loved our kindergarten teacher a few years ago. However, after our experience with kindergarten last year (2018-19) we were strongly considering leaving this school. Happy we didn’t as we are currently very happy with all of our children’s teachers. I wish administration could find a way to get rid of that kindergarten teacher who is still there. As with any school, it’s the teacher that can make or break your child’s school year. We have had wonderful teachers for 4 of our years there, and only one year of a really negative experience with a teacher.

Two of the teachers my son struggled with was the gym teacher and the music teacher. I cant believe the PE teacher still has her job. I later found out these two teachers are good friends so it is understandable why they ganged up on my son. My son dreaded going to both these classes. Can you imagine a 9 year old boy dreading PE, yup that is the atmosphere she created. She used manipulation and scare tactics to control my son and that did not work so she just belittled and embarrassed him as did the the music teacher. When I emailed the new so-called Principal, we set up a meeting and she tried to turn it around on me.

It was a great school, but now all hard work from previous administration was ruined. Last administration was forced out due to a false accusation from a teacher, who is still there. She ruined such a great setup for kids especially ones with a need in supportive services.
