Start Smart

S.P. Livingston is more than a school – it's a launchpad for success. As a newly emerging STEM center, we challenge students to reach new heights while nurturing strong character and social-emotional growth. We believe strong literacy skills are the cornerstone for education. Partnering with the University of Florida Literacy Institute, we use proven models to help students develop foundational reading and writing skills that will serve them throughout their academic journey and careers. Beyond academics, we emphasize character development, teaching the importance of good behavior, respect, and responsibility — ensuring students are prepared not just for school, but for life. 

Where Every Student Belongs

Every child is supported to learn, grow, and succeed at S.P. Livingston. From accelerated academics to resource classes for students with special needs, we ensure all learners thrive together. Through programs like Extended Day, City Year mentors, and Read USA tutors, students receive the academic, behavioral, and social-emotional support to succeed now and in the future. School traditions like Green Parties and Principal’s Lunch Bunch bring our community together and make every child feel they truly belong. 

A World of Fun and Learning

Learning at S.P. Livingston goes far beyond the classroom. Students shine on our morning news broadcasts, earn rewards for great attendance, and celebrate success with “Fair Friday” treats and Student Jaguar of the Month honors. Enrichment opportunities spark creativity and curiosity—from our new Girls Who Code afterschool club, to hands-on agriculture lessons with Boys & Girls Club and OneHealth, to our Melonated Gardens partnership that brought eight garden beds to campus. With dedicated science lab time each week, we give students the chance to explore, experiment, and discover. 

Stronger Together

At S.P. Livingston, we believe education is a team effort. We build strong partnerships between home and school through open communication, so families are always informed and engaged. Parents and guardians are encouraged to volunteer in classrooms and take part in school activities, creating a vibrant community built on connection and shared responsibility. Families love our dedicated faculty and staff because we treat every child as our own—celebrating their big milestones and small victories alike, while supporting them every step of the way.
