The Meadowbrook journey is marked by many traditions and rites of passage. MWS students grow up watching the activities and accomplishments of the older students knowing that, one day, it will be their turn.

In the early morning hours of Sunday, July 29 fire broke out at Meadowbrook Waldorf School in Richmond, Rhode Island. The fire was caused by a lightning strike that also destroyed the electrical and telephone systems needed to activate the alarm and emergency response. Despite the efforts of 250 fire fighters from 22 towns, the building was declared a total loss and the remains were demolished.
