About Our School
Uplift Meridian Preparatory is part of Uplift Education, the largest charter school network in North Texas. Our beautiful campus is located in southeast Fort Worth and was built to allow more students to attend nearby, nationally-recognized Uplift Mighty for middle school and high school. Uplift Mighty is nationally recognized as one of the top high schools in the nation (students at Uplift Meridian will receive automatic admission to Uplift Mighty when moving from 5th to 6th grade). We are proud of our small school feel and tight-knit community of families. Schedule a tour to see for yourself how we are raising the expectations for education!
