Meridian is a great tight-knit community. It is inclusive and welcoming of all people. I do wish it had sports.

Both of my children attended Meridian and it set them up as confident, competent, creative lifelong learners. They got into great colleges (both ED) that were a wonderful match for them and found that they were much more prepared than their classmates as writers, as discussion participants, and as students able to seek out mentorship from their professors.

After attending a few different types of schools throughout Boston (public and private), I have never seen a more supportive, kind, and thoughtful school vibe. It is a place where teachers encourage thoughtful discourse, creative expression, and active community involvement. Meridian is truly special.
