    About Meridian

    Meridian is a PreK-8th grade school located in Washington DC's vibrant U Street Corridor. Our mission is to inspire a passion for learning in our students and to help them build their self-confidence and self-respect through academic achievement. Our 650+ students are a diverse mix of African American, Latino, Asian, African, and White students. Almost 30% of our students are English language learners, and we have one of the largest Hispanic populations in DC charter schools. We are committed to building a community of teachers and staff who reflect the rich diversity of our student body.

    We serve families from our local communities; one-third of our students live within a half mile of the school. The U Street Corridor was once the heart of black culture in DC and offers a tangible historical archive for our students, and Columbia Heights is one of the most racially and economically diverse neighborhoods in the District. We are proud that Meridian is a school of choice for parents - all eight wards of the city are represented among our student population.

    Our strengths include two beautiful and historic campuses with nearby outdoor and recreational grounds, state-of-the-art technology for students and teachers, updated and aligned curricula, an academic program focused on student growth, achievement, and social-emotional development, extensive professional development and support for teachers and leaders, and a school culture grounded in student achievement, collaboration, and student-centered learning.
