These aren't just events; they're the threads that weave our community together, year after year.
Buddies, Leaders & Greeters
Sixth graders are paired with preschoolers in our beloved Buddies program, building cross-grade mentorship, patience, and kindness. Upper school students also serve as Leaders and Greeters, welcoming families and guests to campus.
Red vs. Gray Soccer
The entire school divides into two teams for this spirited annual tradition. It's not about the score; it's about school spirit, sportsmanship, and community.

Students of all grade levels sit together with a teacher for a family-style meal. Our 3rd–6th graders serve as 'waiters.' This cherished tradition fosters community, encourages healthy eating, and embodies The Meadowbrook Way.
