Metairie Park Country Day School, a non-sectarian coeducational Pre-K-12 school located on 14-acres in beautiful Metairie, Louisiana, minutes away from New Orleans. "Country Day," as we call it, is a joyful place filled with thoughtful, passionate adults united in creating a supportive and challenging community for young people.
At Country Day, we understand that children learn best in an academically demanding and appropriately supportive environment, so we have carefully created a rigorous academic program in the context of a committed and caring community. We encourage independence, foster critical thinking, and train our students to open their minds to limitless possibilities.
We are also a proud school community, conscious of our long-standing traditions, our appetite for innovation, and our collegiality. Specific traditions like a standard Dining Room, the grouping of K-1-2 students, and our Faculty Fellows program emblematize our community traits, as do many other school features.
Metairie Park Country Day School enriches the lives of talented young people in a dynamic learning environment, building the strength of intellect and strength of character within a community that is simultaneously challenging and supportive. Our students learn to be flexible, adaptable and face the challenges of life with honor, optimism, confidence, creativity, and a sense of humor.
Metairie Park Country Day School believes that creating a fully inclusive community is an ongoing process that is essential for optimal learning. We are cultivating a community based upon respect and empowerment of all individuals. Our School's commitment to fostering diversity does not merely reflect tolerance or accommodation but rather a recognition of how all community members are enriched and strengthened when these principles are embraced.
In pursuit of this goal, our School community seeks to eliminate bias in School by addressing stereotypes, emphasizing similarities and differences, and encouraging awareness and enjoyment of multiple perspectives. The Country Day Board, administration, faculty, staff, parents, and students are committed to creating and maintaining a positive environment where all students' academic and social well-being is affirmed.
