Principal's Message

Rise Up to the Community - Rise Up to the Challenge - Rise Up to your Responsibility

Meraki is an independent study high school that focuses on project-based learning to assist in the growthe of self-starters, independent thinkers and responsible young adults. We offer a blended approach to learning which includes schoolwide, small group and/or individual projects, interest-based learning opportunities and online courses.  Students are assigned to a small advisory group and are paired with an advisor who will co-create their learning with them all four years.

We are excited to welcome you to the 2022-2023 school year, and I would like to officially introduce myself.

My name is Kirk Bebout and I am really excited about being Meraki’s next principal.  I am most excited to see and be part of the innovative climate and structure of Meraki HS.  Watching and being a part of students' projects and learning will be inspiring, and I hope to participate in those opportunities frequently.  Your advisors have spent many hours this summer preparing for this year.  We are all looking forward to an exciting return to Meraki and to jumping right into the new possibilities ahead of us.  Welcome back!
