SAIS is excited to unveil Meridian, a new benchmarking tool designed to help school leaders make data-informed decisions that strengthen mission-driven plans.
The first phase of Meridian focuses on teacher compensation, with future iterations expanding into broader areas of school operations and organizational health.
We are grateful to the nearly 400 SAIS member schools that contributed data during the annual membership renewal process. This collective effort reflects the full diversity of our association—across geographic settings, operating budgets, enrollment sizes, religious affiliations, and grade levels.
For nearly half of our schools, access to comparable data at a national level has been challenging. Meridian now fills that gap, offering a shared point of orientation and direction for every member school across the SAIS network.
Meridian is available exclusively to SAIS member schools. To access this dashboard, you must be logged in as an SAIS member school and have a designated status as head of school or primary financial contact in the SAIS membership database. In most cases, the primary financial contact is the school’s CFO when applicable. You may need to logout and log back in to the SAIS website to activate your access to this restricted page. Please contact research@sais.org for access assistance.
