Meade High School is an outstanding institution that provides students with a strong foundation for success in both academics and extracurricular activities. As a parent of two Meade High graduates, I can confidently say that this school has played a crucial role in their achievements.One of the school's greatest strengths is its exceptional language programs, which offer students valuable communication skills and cultural understanding. The JROTC program is top-tier, instilling discipline, leadership, and teamwork that prepare students for future careers and education. Additionally, the special education program is outstanding, ensuring that all students receive the necessary support to excel.Beyond academics, Meade High has a state-recognized music department, showcasing incredible talent and dedication. The school's facilities are also impressive the campus looks amazing, creating a welcoming environment for learning. Above all, Meade High is led by an incredible principal who truly cares about the students, fostering a culture of growth and success.My daughter graduated from Meade High and went on to earn a Master's degree in Business with a minor in Finance and Accounting, a testament to the strong academic foundation she received. My son, another proud graduate, is well on his way to completing his Associate's degree in Game Design and Game Development at Anne Arundel Community College.Meade High School has played a significant role in shaping my children's futures, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a school that truly supports its students in achieving their dreams.

This school is horrible. The walls are fake and flimsy, and the hallways are far too thin for 900+ students. The bathrooms are dirty, and a lot of the stall doors dont have functioning locks or toilet paper holders. Some of the teachers are cool, but most of them are cortisol-raising demons sent to make people suffer. The class sizes are too large for misbehavior to be managed, and many of the counselors don't do their job (except for a few). In fact, you only feel more miserable and ignored after speaking to some of them. Lots of the students are violent and rowdy, to the point where you can barely get through a hallway without being shoved over. Even then, they barely get punished and actually get treated better by admin in PBIS events. All in all i think that being sent to this school is a human rights violation

I have had a son go through all six years at Ridgeway, and my second son is currently in there. This school has hired highly qualified teachers who care about the students in their class and go the extra mile to make sure all students feel included. Mrs. Alvear is the best principal ever and the school has great communication. The PTA raises enough money at their booster thon to make most school events, including dances, free for students. Both of my children have taken part in clubs that have been offered at Ridgeway. We’ve been very happy with our experiences at Ridgeway!
