Our family chose Country Day for our daughter because of the warm and nurturing environment, the focus on building character, the superior academics, the welcoming community, and the love we sensed for the school each time we stepped on campus. Our expectations have been surpassed in every way possible.

–Caroline Deichmann, first-grade parent

Country Day was a pivotal part of my life that opened so many doors for me. In a few short years, I developed a passion for physics, fully learned a language, explored dozens of subjects with teachers who left a permanent mark on me, and formed many lasting memories. Perhaps best of all, I formed incredibly strong friendships with so many kind, intelligent, and highly talented people, who still to this day, inspire me to push for greatness.
