Meridian Elementary

The Principal is amazing! If you have a strong, caring, and innovating leadership like her the entire school benefits and excels. All the teachers we have had are extraordinary. Good communication is easy to have about grades, missing assignments, social/emotional issues, health concerns, and about anything else. We had some social issues and the teachers took it seriously and helped everyone grow from the experience. In the last several years, they added the accelerated program, implemented a new math curriculum, upgraded the bathrooms and drinking fountains, soccer nets, volleyball, and added privacy screens to the kindergarten playground. They encourage parent involvement by having grandparents day, parents at PE day, and so much more. Overall school is wonderful! Many leave to charter schools and then come back.

I went here 20 years ago and my kids now currently go here. It's a fabulous school with great teachers and staff. A lot of the teachers here have been with Canyon Rim since I went there and it opened in 2003, I really think that speaks volumes!! The principal, Mr Lopat, is fabulous. He's at the drop off and pickup car line everyday and loves getting to know the kids and parents. Canyon rim offers a traditional vs conventional classroom options so kids can learn the best way for them. I love this school and would recommend it any day!

We have been here for a few years thus far. This is your basic elementary. Some great teachers, some lazy. My biggest concern has been a serious lack of curbing behavior issues. My child has had to endure continuous disruptions from the same kids - year after year. It makes it hard to "teach" anything. Lots of kids that need to be expelled - but they are still there. With so many countless violent outbursts, we had to start looking at new schools. Great playground and lots of fun after school activities provided for fees.Not enough adult supervision. Too many kids. Seems like teachers push a lot of busy work during the day.This is an "uppity" school. So if you dont like to show off or flash your wealth you may feel out of place.
