We have three daughters. My oldest daughter graduated last year from Mekeel and we have two daughters on track to graduate from Mekeel in the coming years. My husband and I could not be happier with our choice to enroll our daughter's in Mekeel 9 years ago. The environment at Mekeel is comforting, safe, and supportive and very unique in that we are like a family. The teachers connect with students on many levels (academically, emotionally and spiritually). There is nothing more comforting than knowing our girls are loved and cared for during the most formidable years of their lives by teachers that truly care for them. There is nothing sweeter than the Mekeel culture of upperclassman pouring into the younger students and being fantastic role models for the next generation. Watching upperclassman genuinely love and care for the younger kids is so special at Mekeel. As a parent, I am encouraged about the academic rigor at Mekeel as well as the AP and college credit courses offered at Mekeel. Additionally, our girls have had great success in volleyball, soccer, basketball, track, softball and theatre. We appreciate the blend of academics, spiritual life, athletics and fine arts provided at Mekeel. Students are loved, challenged and cared for at Mekeel and we can't ask much more than that for our girls.

More training needed for teachers. ICT classrooms need more training. Some staff speak to parents inappropriately. Classroom occurances not handled well. The school predominantly caters to special needs children and not enough for the general education population.
