The Future Looks Bright for the Class of 2024

Today, more than ever, it is important for us to express gratitude and appreciation for our Meadows community and embrace the bright future that awaits the Class of 2024.

Our seniors began their Upper School years as freshmen with a hybrid schedule, under the shadow of a global pandemic. They have proven their resiliency in the face of challenges, their loyalty to their friends, their dedication to learning, and their commitment to making the world a better place.

The Class of 2024 faced the most competitive admissions landscape in recent years and they triumphed with unprecedented success, earning more than $8.2 million dollars in renewable scholarships over four years of college. Whether they are attending research universities or liberal arts colleges, heading to the East Coast or Midwest, or taking advantage of the exceptional education in our backyard, we are proud of our students for choosing colleges based on the right fit for their individual needs and circumstances.

Our seniors have inspired us with their college essays and senior speeches during which they have reflected on their self-actualization, shared moments of triumph and setbacks, and conveyed lessons realized over time. We applaud our seniors for their courage and vulnerability, and we encourage them to follow their dreams, to never give up, and to know that they are stronger than they give themselves credit for. We are incredibly proud of all that they have accomplished, and we share their excitement for the journey that awaits!
