Meridian Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Meridian Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates two schools: Meridian High School and Meridian Elementary. While Meridian High School stands out with a 100% four-year graduation rate and a very low 0% dropout rate, the district faces significant challenges, particularly at the elementary school level.

Meridian Elementary has a high percentage of students (77.06%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic need among the student population. This economic challenge may contribute to the school's low state-wide ranking, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Meridian High School ranks 1013 out of 1987 Texas high schools, with a 2-star rating, suggesting a higher quality of education at the secondary level.

Academically, both Meridian High School and the Meridian Independent School District as a whole perform below the state average on STAAR/STAAR EOC assessments, particularly in mathematics. This underperformance highlights the need for the district to focus on improving instructional practices and student support to better meet academic standards and ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
