Meridian Medical Arts Charter High School was in fact the BEST decision of my life. Not only did I graduate with my EMT, CNA, and CMAA licenses--I also graduated with many college credits. This school pushes you, encourages you, and even takes the time to help you with anything you need. MMACHS became a family. With classes focusing on sciences, each class integrates medical things so that you can further your education in the medical field. If you are interested in pursuing a medical career, I highly recommend this school.

I chose to attend Meridian Medical Arts Charter High School (MMACHS) because it was a school that promised me the best opportunity to further my interest in pharmacy. The academics are rigorous and constructive. MMACHS offers 48 credits worth of concurrent credits and operates in an environment much like a university. Countless alumni have come back expressing their gratitude for how much this school has prepared them for college. It has given me countless experiences in the real medical world, granting me job shadows, internships, surgery tours, and bringing other medical professionals that have helped to further my understanding of pharmacy. If I could go anywhere else, I’d still choose to continue coming to MMACHS. I would love to see the Wi-Fi run faster and our laptops upgraded. Overall, my school is phenomenal, giving me the knowledge, experience, and technical skills I need to pursue a successful career in clinical pharmacy.
From attending MMACHS for the last three years I have had a great education and have taken classes I would not have had the opportunity to take at a traditional high school. A majority of the teachers are kind and create a fun learning environment. I also love how the school is centered around the medical field, so students are able to graduate with a CNA or EMT. All the students are intelligent and hard working. This creates an encouraging learning environment.
