GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

For all 4 years of my high school career, I've attended Meade High School. I also played football for all 4 years and besides the sports that keep this school interesting, having a terrible lunch didn't get me through certain days and even when I battled depression through my junior year I felt I didn't have any teacher/counselor to talk to because I felt no connection with any adults there to make me feel comfortable to talk to them.

Overall it has been fine but mainly because of the program I am in. I am in the IB diploma program and it has allowed me to stay in a cohort and have advanced classes. I hear poor things about other teachers and classes and students throughout the school but my experience has been fine. Not great but fine.

As with any school it’s what you make of it. There are plenty of opportunities for a student who wants to excel in stem, sports or the arts.

Before school, you had a lot of daily problems. But now the entire staff has changed and the school is a little safer.

The reputation this school received is based on outdated information and is inconsistent with my child’s experience. Please keep in mind that a lot of the reviews written are by upset students who have had disagreements with teacher, etc. Mr. Durr ( principal) has done a tremendous job with the staf...
