Meridian High School Reviews
Rating 3.61 out of 5 263 reviews
My personal experience has been amazing. There’s never a time that I couldn’t talk to any staff member there. What I would like to change is more participation from parents.
The best part about the changes happening in Meridian High School is then new efforts they are putting in to the building to ensure that it remains a safe campus. As of right now it is a walk on campus but during the 24-25 school year it won't be so easy access.
High school has been challenging and has helped me grow in many different ways and has taught me about real life situations.
