Visit & Apply
At The Meadowbrook School, students gain the opportunity to learn in an environment where they are encouraged to connect with the world around them, not by reading facts from a textbook, but instead by living out their lessons.
As an alumna of the Class of 2004, I have a unique insight as to what it is to be a student at The Meadowbrook School. It is the experiences I had here that brought me back as a faculty member. At Meadowbrook, I was offered the chance to not only gain a valuable education that would carry me through to college, but also to be molded into a confident and resilient citizen. That is because at Meadowbrook we aren’t just focused on academics, but also the ability to live with confidence, integrity, and kindness, with an emphasis on individuality.
I look forward to meeting your family and telling you more about our wonderful school.
