Who We Are

“I like to think about the Black people who were important scientists, because it makes me think I could be a good scientist too.”

—Sekani, age 10

“I like this school because it’s hard, and I can tell I’m learning. I’m having fun, and I’m not afraid of numbers anymore.”

Wren, age 8

Who We Are

For over 25 years, Meadows-Livingstone School has specialized in educating African-American children to reach their full academic, social, emotional and creative potential. We solve Black parents’ dilemma: finding an academically challenging school that also cultivates their children’s self-respect. We build students’ strength through a holistic approach, teaching the whole child. We are a small school – fewer than 30 students – where we treat teachers, students and families as valued members of a caring community.
