Buckingham Friends School, an independent Quaker[1] school in Lahaska, Pennsylvania was founded in 1794.[2] The current Quaker Meetinghouse was built in 1768. An addition was put on in the 1930s, followed by the gymnasium in 1955 and the lower school building. Another addition was built in 2002/2003. In 2015, the Lower School was fully renovated. The school provides for grades K-8.[3]
