Mead Senior High School

Posted September 14, 2008

All three of my kids graduated from Mead and two of three were involved in school based activities. All three were high academic achievers, especially in math and science. One earned a National Merit Finalist award and free 4 yr scholarship. Despite my encouragement, this did not prepare them for life after high school nor did it motivate them to pursue successful careers. The most successful is the one that was the least involved in H.S.. The school has too many liberal teachers who promote the big idea - do gooder attitude. Save the poor! Join a service organaization and travel the world! They should be directing these kids to go to college and join the real world first. They don't!

I have taught in California and Washington. Of the 3 schools that I have taught at Mead High School is superior. The student body is phenomenal, the parents are supportive, and, for me, my colleagues and administration are enthusiastic about what they do. This is a school I look forward to going to every day.

The nationally recognized Mead Senior High School... what is there to say? Test scores are great, students are excelling academically and extracellularly, and students are leaving this school with more than enough knowledge and preparation to enter further education. Teachers are well educated and are enthusiastic to teach these children. In fact, my son's chemistry teacher actually contacts chemistry professors from WSU to ensure that students are leaving with the understanding to be able to enter chemistry in college, skipping the chem 100 and 101 classes. The music programs are top notch, and the sports teams are nationally recognized. Administration connects well with the parents and students and the councilors are fantastic. Mead High really does live up to its name in that Mead offers a student-centered and student-friendly atmosphere where success is encouraged, expected, and attained.

Mead High School came very high recommended, but we have found the overall school experience to be below average, as far as teacher/coaches support and encouragement of all the students that are either in their class or sports team. The adminstration has been non-responsive in attempting to openly discuss our concerns and frustrations
