    COMMUNITY BUILDER Since Summerlin® began development in the late 1980s, the community has become home to more than 100,000 Southern Nevadans who enjoy an unparalleled quality of life within one of the country’s most dynamic and exciting cities. As one of the nation’s best-selling master-planned communities for nearly two decades, Summerlin has set the standard both locally and nationally for award-winning master-planned development. Situated along the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley in the shadow of the Spring Mountain Range and Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Summerlin is unfolding on 35 square miles of desert land acquired by Howard Hughes in the 1950s. It is one of the nation’s largest contiguous properties under single ownership adjacent to a major metropolitan area. The Howard Hughes Corporation spent more than three years developing a community master plan that set the standard for master-planned communities nationwide. The result is the stunning and vibrant community of Summerlin – a place where residents learn and live in harmony with the environment, their neighbors and their families. A multi-generational community, Summerlin abounds with parks, trails, sports fields, golf courses, natural open areas and its own live, work, play urban core in the heart of the community.

    Student & Parent Handbook 2021-2022 School Year Mission & Core Values MISSION STATEMENT In its pursuit of excellence, The Meadows School inspires ambitious students to love and respect higher learning, to passionately serve their communities, and to lead meaningful lives as citizens of a global society. WE LIVE OUR MISSION THROUGH OUR CORE VALUES SCHOLARSHIP We hold ourselves to the highest academic standards by placing the highest value on academic rigor. Every pupil is provided with the opportunity to realize their individual potential, and students accomplish what may at first have seemed impossible. Passionate and talented teachers “Teach them to Reach” by promoting independent thinking, problem-solving, and continual growth. CHARACTER A great education carries with it an obligation to self, family, and community. From the Lower School’s Good Citizens program to the Upper School’s Honor Code, service to others, empathy, honesty, integrity, and good citizenship are at the core of The Meadows experience. COMMUNITY Successful education requires a three-way partnership between students, teachers, and parents. Families are welcomed to campus as active participants in a school community forged around a common appreciation for the transformative power of a top-flight educational experience. INCLUSION Our strengths are all different, and our differences are our greatest strengths. Students and teachers value the unique qualities of each individual as vital to the shared educational experience. DISCOVERY Education is a journey, not a destination. We provide students with the freedom to explore athletics, arts, speech and debate, and other extracurricular activities as central parts of their educational experience. At The Meadows, students develop a love of learning by having the chance to learn what they love.
