Meridian Academy of San Diego County

Meridian Academy is an independent school in San Marcos, CA. At Meridian Academy we know that students learn best when they are interested, engaged, and empowered. Education occurs when students get excited about learning.

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire” William Butler Yeats.

We keep students’ interest by exploring topics that are compelling to them. Children become engaged when their learning style is addressed, be it visual, verbal, aural, kinesthetic, or social. Students become empowered when they see that their individuality is valued and they feel confident in their ability to learn and succeed.

Each student comes with their own unique genius, learning style, personality, and potential. Our communities need this individuality. The push for standardization is killing creativity and innovation, two things that are crucial to the ever changing global economy. Meridian Academy addresses students’ unique learning styles, cultivates original thought, and promotes the building of character, enabling them to contribute to their communities in meaningful and positive ways.
