Meadowridge School is an independent, coeducational, secular, International Baccalaureate Continuum World School in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, serving students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12. ==About the School== The school's mission statement is "Learning to Live Well, With Others and For Others, in a Just Community." According to the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Times, Meadowridge School has topped the charts in provincial elementary school education according to the first Fraser Institute Report Card on B.C.'s Elementary Schools. But the Headmaster of the Maple Ridge private school was highly critical of the report card - and said it could lead to the decline of elementary education. "We are not proud of our number-one ranking, because it is not a meaningful statistic," said Hugh Burke, Headmaster of Meadowridge. "I would not choose an elementary school based on the Fraser Institute's ratings." As of the 2013-2014 school year, Meadowridge is ranked 22nd among BC elementary schools with a score of 9.7/10〔http://britishcolumbia.compareschoolrankings.org/elementary/SchoolsByRankLocationName.aspx〕 and 14th among BC secondary schools with a score of 8.9/10.〔http://britishcolumbia.compareschoolrankings.org/secondary/SchoolsByRankLocationName.aspx〕 In 2006, the school gained widespread media attention in the Vancouver Sun, CITY TV and other provincial media throughout B.C. with their unique offering of a Grade 11 course in Forensic Science, which they no longer offer. Meadowridge is also known for being the school at which Canadian race car driver Greg Moore once attended. His banner hangs in the school gymnasium in Greg's honor. The school also attracted media attention in 2011 when then grade 12 student, Nathan Kotylak, was photographed setting fire to a police car during the 2011 Stanley Cup riots.〔http://www.mapleridgenews.com/news/124191974.html〕'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Meadowridge School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
