School Overview

Meridian Elementary sits in the southeastern corner of Kent, close to the Covington area where the suburbs start to give way to more open, wooded neighborhoods — a solid option for families who want a bit more breathing room without straying too far from the amenities of the greater Seattle region. The school performs comfortably above average across the board, with particular strength in English, making it a good fit for families who prioritize literacy and well-rounded academics. Kent School District serves a wonderfully diverse community, and Meridian reflects that mix while still delivering consistent, reliable results year after year.
