Meridian High School

The administration is wonderful. My child has special needs and they go out of their way to make sure my child is set up for an accessible learning experience. I know how it can be a constant fight to advocate for your child’s educational needs but the teachers and staff are very willing to work with parents. Principal Christiana is fantastic and always makes sure the school is a safe learning environment. She as well as the school district make sure to let parents know of any changes to schedules and are willing to help parents who are disadvantaged. In our experience they have been very compassionate and patient with students in light of the pandemic. I highly recommend this elementary.

I have been absolutely blown away by the incredibly individualized education my son has received at Whatcom Day Academy. I cannot speak highly enough about this school. All of the teachers and administrators at the school know my son, know his interests, and have had a meaningful hand in his learning experience. He adores it, and misses it when he is away from it. With small class sizes, I know he is really "seen" by the school, and his giant leaps forward in skills demonstrate to me that the quality of what they teach is absolutely top notch. My son's teacher is really more of an extended family member, and she indulges me constantly as I ask questions about how he's doing and hang out in the classroom once in a while. This is a very special place, unlike anything else in Whatcom County.
