My 2 kids attend this school, and we have had nothing but great experience here. The location is beautiful and the entire staff is very approachable and friendly. Even when my elder kid had some grade related issues, the teachers stepped up immediately and helped my kid workout the issues and got extra chances to ace her scores. All the Irvine schools are awesome and so is ours. Proud parent.

This school has the worst bullying problem and no one cares. Kids getting punched and called names. You can hear The F word used on a daily basis by the kids on the playground which has very inadequate supervision. The administration is in complete denial. They look the other way because all they care about are test scores and looking good on paper. They only teach to the tests. If its not on the state testing then they dont teach it. Its a very sad situation. There are a few teachers that have been at Meadowpark close to 20 yrs. They try very hard to help the kids, but they always fail because of the administation and its ultimate goal of “ looking good” at any cost! So many families have left this school to homeschool their kids! If you have a choice dont choose Meadow park!

I have 2 children At Meadow Park, and so far the teachers, the Principal, and the rest of the staff have all been outstanding. There is a wonderful balance of academics and developing social skills, teachers have high expectations of their students, they are firm, but caring, demand a lot a, but not more than the kids are capable of. Wonderful, exceptional school, I couldn't be happier.

This is the most balanced school I have seen in the area. Great Staff and Great schooling atmosphere. Also classrooms look fresh and well lit that promotes a good positive atmosphere for the kids.

My family have recently relocated to the USA from the UK, where my three daughters grades 1, 4, & 6 went to a very good school so didn't know what to expect from a local school in the USA. My daughters have settled into Meadow Park exceptionally well thanks to both the staff and the very welcoming kids there. Although some of the subjects they are currently studying they have touched on before in the UK they are learning them in a different way. Whether it is a new way to calculate percentages or studying a different aspect of ancient Greece, Grade 6. Learning about California Missions or being given extra math packs in Grade 4, as my daughter had already covered some of the curriculum math, or working hard on the whole busy of math and reading in Grade 1. My daughters are learning new things and having fun. I would recommend Meadow Park Elementary to anyone. My only negative would be the use of computers in spelling tests as in the USA you have your own way of spelling and whose to say which is right.

I love, love, love this school! My son has been at this school since 2011. We have had nothing but a pleasant experience with everyone on campus.

I am not a parent at this school (yet!) but I have just moved into the area and called the school to find out if they do school tours. They don`t, but I spoke to a lovely, friendly, helpful lady in the office who made me feel very welcome, took as long as I needed to answer all my questions and actually LISTEN to me (which was just what I needed as I am so overwhelmed right now with everything I have to do) and left me with a fabulous impression of this school and their frontline staff. On the strength of that impression alone I am keen to try and get into this school area if we can.
