It means having room to grow.
It means balance, and knowing that you have the support to pursue your passions—
academic, artistic, and athletic.
It means flexibility
and the space to make new friends, share new ideas, and deepen understanding.
It means flourishing together
and seeing where you’re going and where you’ve been.
What does it mean for students to thrive? At Princeton Day School, thriving takes many forms, from students’ opportunities to discover and pursue their passions to the space to pause, to reflect, to know themselves and to celebrate their friendships. For our community to keep thriving, we must continue to create an environment that nurtures every student in ways that we know are important. We must not only commit significant resources to make a Princeton Day School education affordable to deserving students and to fuel the intellectual and pedagogic growth of our faculty, we must also invest in the places that make thriving possible. That means creating spaces that allow our community to come together, both in ways that reflect our curriculum, and in ways that reflect our values. It means investing across program areas so that we remain balanced in our ability to serve the needs and interests of our students. It means growing into and strengthening our established excellence in thoughtful, meaningful ways. I love this school, its students and our community. Our tradition of innovation, coupled with our current stability, give us a once-in-a-generation opportunity to take Princeton Day School from excellent to exceptional. Together, we will deepen our capacity to deliver a transformative education. Together, we will thrive.
