A Brotherhood of Excellence

Excellence Boys K-8 is a school community dedicated to brotherhood. Under the guidance of passionate teachers and leaders – including many male role models who are also alums of our school and of HBCUs – you’ll see your child’s self-love and inner strength soar. Even more, our scholars learn that they can change the world for the better, as they prepare for success in college and beyond.

Excellence Boys alum, Elijah Megginson, regularly revisits his alma mater to inspire the next generation of Excellence. Elijah is currently enrolled at Morehouse College and has interned at The New York Times, BET, and NBA.

Watch as Elijah discusses what it means to return to Excellence Boys as a Morehouse Man.
