Country Day is a unique and wonderful place where students love
to learn.
“Front-Row” Seats
At Country Day, individual students are recognized
and every student has day-to-day engagements with their teachers.
Hallmarks of our school are the close mentoring relationships and
strong rapport that develop between students and their teachers.
With an average faculty-to-student ratio of one teacher for every
nine students and small class sizes in every grade, a core part
of our mission is to ensure that every student has a front-row
seat.
Choices, Choices, and More Choices
Students have full access to every program we
offer. As students experience drama, sports, our
award-winning newspaper, Mock Trial, Student Council, or
instrumental music, they discover unknown talents and interests
and learn to try new things. Students can be selective,
make choices, or do it all at Country Day.
Independent Thinking
We encourage children in the open pursuit of
knowledge. From literature-based writing and a focus on
critical thinking and problem-solving in math in the Lower School
to Advanced Placement and honors instruction in the High School,
Country Day challenges its students to grow intellectually.
Indeed, we pride ourselves on helping each child find his or her
own “voice.”
Dedicated, Talented Faculty
Country Day attracts outstanding teachers who
recognize the value of bright, enthusiastic students, small class
sizes, the supportive community of colleagues and parents, and
the unique opportunity to design a curriculum and create a
classroom environment that inspires each student. Our faculty
members are scholars as well as talented teachers, and they are
given the flexibility to develop the best course of study and
inquiry in the classes they teach at Country Day.
