SCHOOL

Our Pre-K through 12th grade co-ed students enjoy small class sizes and a dynamic learning environment on our expansive campus. Recognized as Niche's #1 K-12 private school in Sacramento and the #1 private high school, our commitment to excellence in education, and an inclusive and supportive community, ensure our students achieve their individual potential.

OVERHEARD

“Too many people are afraid to make a mistake. Accepting failure helps students develop a growth mindset, which will serve them well for the rest of their lives.”

Dr. Kellie Whited, Science Department Chair and Biology Teacher

“What I hope I see is a student body that feels they are empowered to name any issue that they see– it's their campus. We want every student and faculty member to see this as their home.”

Rachelle Doyle, Director of Advancement

 

“Being able to be yourself in a safe space is nice; everyone knows you and there is less judgment. There is no culture of having to be perfect at everything, this is a community here to support you.”

Juliette ‘24

 

“The learning environment at Country Day High School is tailored…you can really adjust it and build your own academic experience. Teachers find what works for a student and support them with the best tools for them.”

Luke '24

"Students don't have to always have an answer. But the thing is to keep asking the questions, to keep digging deep, to keep thinking...I think that's the best part of what we give them." 

Kristi Mathisen, Lower School Humanities Chair
