Four Decades of Mustang Pride

A Legacy of Excellence, Blue and White

Where it started

A school built by its students

In August 1986, Meadowcreek High School opened its doors to relieve Berkmar and Norcross. The name carries two histories at once: the Meadows Family School and the Creek Indians who came before us.

The very first student body of 1986 chose our colors. Blue and white have belonged to the Mustangs ever since, picked by the kids who walked in first and made the place their own.

"A microcosm of the world" By 1999, Meadowcreek was home to students from 60 countries speaking 75 languages. That is the heart of who we are, and the reason this anniversary belongs to everyone who ever called these halls home.
