Meridian, for a smaller school, is a great one. Meridian is definitely the best school in its conference. Meridian excels in both academics and sports and has a superb band program set up. The band is up to 5 times larger then similarly sized schools and it can rival Midland's band. Recently the school has been completely remodeled and upgraded. There are also college prep. programs offered that are excellent use if continuing your education. The school is small though and is limited on classes, but it offers dual enrollment in which you can acquire a class through a larger school. Overall, the teachers are very helpful in making sure you learn everything you need to know to continue your education. Because of it's small size Meridian does lack in some opportunities such as diverse classes, but the small size helps when it comes to having helpful and personable teachers.

I have 4 adults that graduated from Meridian, first two are in grad school last two still undergrads. All are of the opinion that their schooling was woefully inept and substandard. Meridian has great preperatory programs for gas station attendant's or fast food operations. The counseling program is awful and a majority of the teachers have no business being in a school system. Unfortunatly the new administration is more concerned in local politics than education.

As a student I feel that Meridian High School is excellent. I've found the teachers there to always be helpful and willing to take time out of class to help students. If the school can't offer you a class that you want to take, speaking of higher level ones, then they'll pay for you to dual-enroll in the close by colleges; not exactly the kind of environment that you'd find in a school preventing a child from continuing their education. Meridian is the only school I've went to and I'm doing fine so far on continuing my education, you could even call me an achiever if you think it fits; President of the NHS, 33 on the math ACT and 29 composite, already accepted into one of the top 25 engineering schools in the United States, never once has the fact that I go to Meridian High School hindered my chances.
