Livingston Elementary School

We moved from out of state. I had concerns about the rural area, but have been pleasantly surprised. Livingston has been great for my 4th and 1rst grader. Everyone has gone above and beyond helping my boys transition with a cross-country move.

Having gone through the NY school system most of my life I was very hesitant to send our son to a rural school in what seemed like a forgotten area. What a pleasant surprise it was to walk through the doors of this school and meet the warm upbeat staff and principal. We have paid for private schools, montessori schools and found that this little school has so much more to offer. The PTA this year has really stepped up their game and are striving to bring afterschool enrichment opportunities to the students. You really get the sense that everyone here cares. And as all of us parents know, dropping off a kindergartener can be stressful. Hearing teachers and administrators of every level call our son by name by the second day was such an amazing comfort. I love this place!!

My children are enrolled at Livingston now. My experience as parent with the staff & faculty is superb. My 5th & 2nd grader love being in school. Scope (Spotsylvania County Program of Enrichment) is flop though. Look forward to Middle school. They gifted program there is great. Don t expect the bells and whistles in NoVA area suburb school. There are no after school activities. PTA is moving away from its backward ways. It changed from PTO to PTA [I have nothing against PTO s]. If you are doing what a parent needs to do for your child, this school has the best staff & faculty team to assist your child to succeed.
