Meeting Street Academy

Meeting Street Academy, a private school located in Spartanburg, SC, expand their vision to provide under-resourced families with life-changing educational opportunities.

When the school was founded in 2012 it served only 36 students in grades 3K – 4K with plans to phase in new classes each year. In 2016, Meeting Street Academy entered into a public-private partnership with Spartanburg School District 7 to expand their enrollment and outreach.

The 15,400 SF school consists of a library, media center / computer lab, multi-purpose room, music and art suites, state-of-the-art classrooms, and a playground. The bright and playful interiors engage and stimulate young minds as they travel the hallways. Pictorial wall graphics help convey the mission of the school, while integrated floor patterns and luminous ceilings serve to captivate and spark the imaginations of students and visitors.

The renovated building helped revitalize an underutilized shopping center located in the heart of Spartanburg.

“This project feels like a great case study for future charter schools to use for renovating an existing space.” – Awards Judge, A4LE Design Awards
