MERIDIAN EL

MERIDIAN EL is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the MERIDIAN ISD school district, located in MERIDIAN, TX with about 227 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 18 teachers, MERIDIAN EL has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

MERIDIAN ELementary School, located at 550 CR 2515 in Meridian, Texas, serves as the primary educational facility for the youngest students within the Meridian Independent School District.

Through a combination of traditional instruction and modern educational practices, the staff strives to prepare students for success as they transition into the upper grade levels.

The school operates under the broader mission of Meridian ISD, which focuses on student achievement and community partnership. By maintaining a localized campus setting, MERIDIAN ELementary is able to provide a close-knit atmosphere where educators can closely monitor student progress and maintain active communication with families.
