The Meadows School

So far, so great! My kindergartener loves everything about this school , except PE of course. Why do we have to run? Lol. But the fact that she's now reading, writing and doing 2nd grade work is amazing. And the fact that she's not burnt out, feeling pressured or despising school is also wonderful. Absolutely love her teacher also. The sweetest lady around. You can truly tell she loves these children. Can't wait to see what the next 12 years bring.

My daughter was in fifth grade at a difficult private school in CA. She was a straight A student, won every challenge and contest and was considered the best student in her class. When I knew we were moving to Las Vegas we applied to the meadows. The admissions office is incompetent. They don't answer the phone. We submitted all the paperwork via their crashing portal. Then, I heard nothing for weeks. I called. Heard nothing. Finally I visited the campus and spoke with a young woman who offered little help. She said the transcripts were never received. I ended up submitting the transcripts three times via mail, and once by the secure email address I was given. Never heard anything. I again contacted this admissions woman only to be told, "yeah, our business office loses the mail all the time." She didn't offer to look at their business office, find a solution, or even apologize. Utter incompetence. Never received an update on her application or as much as a thank you for applying. This school is incompetent and rude. They are riding on a past that was far better. There are also a bunch of of kids at my daughters new school who left meadows. So, think long and hard about what institution deserves your money!

I have had students attend private schools in multiple states for over 35 years, so I am well versed on how they normally operate. I considered Meadows after having researched all private high schools in Las Vegas and was impressed with the reviews for scholastic achievements. Too bad these qualities are not imparted on staff that are responsible for reviewing applications for admission.Keep in mind that since Meadows is private, they have had staff on campus since students are attending in person classes. The pandemic excuse has run its course with most businesses by now. I submitted an application for a grandchild in plenty of time and made sure I included all documents requested (Early January 2021). I never heard back so I sent multiple emails requesting an update on the process. Heaven forbid someone take time from their coffee break and reply in a timely manner.Since I no one responded I called and of course had to leave a voicemail since they don't have the time to answer the phone. I left my name my granddaughters name and the reason for the call and included that I needed a call because other schools had deadlines that were imminent.5 Business days after I left the message, I received a call. The lady on the other end of the line said she was from the admissions office. She stated she was returning my call but did not know when I called or why I called. It was obvious she had not taken the time to listen to the message I had left, she probably has a secretary who provided a call back number, which tells me there are too many layers in administration.I explained that I had registered my grandchild in another school since I had not heard back from them in a timely fashion. I got the impression that she thought she was speaking to one of her students (condescending tone). She stated my application feel through the cracks. Now that would be a valid excuse if we were in the 1970's when things were done with paper notes and not computers.She asked if she could get my name which reenforced my belief she had not taken the time to listen to my message since I was very clear and detailed when I called. I thanked her for her time.If this is how they deal with adults I would have grave reservations sending my child into this type of environment.

This is a very disorganized school very antiquated not flexible it's unfortunate beautiful campus but that is all it has going for it the teachers are NOT flexible Gregerson the head of school isn't flexible. It's just a horrible place for a child to be, it's archaic and the textbooks are so outdated and old! Horrible Horrible school! NOT a happy place,  teachers don't seem they are mean and rude! No one in the school seems happy a nightmare for any child. Kids need to be in a happy environment with up to date technology and educational resources. This school is beyond antiquated! Their main form of payment is a check!!!!!
