- Hampshire Country School is a place of possibilities for high-ability boys entering later elementary or middle school. The school offers understanding, light-heartedness, and structure to educate boys in a family-style, supportive, and calming learning community. Inspiring excitement for learning, living, and playing, the school promotes growth in academics as well as social, behavioral, and emotional intelligence. The campus, 1700 acres of New Hampshire farmland and woods, provides for the intentional integration of structured academic classes and experiential activities to nurture the bright, active and curious side of each boy. Hampshire Country School has experience and success with boys who have been diagnosed with ASD, NLD, ADHD, and similar diagnoses. Since 1948, Hampshire Country School has been a unique and special place. It has been a haven for parents whose children needed someone to believe in them and to notice their strengths rather than their difficulties. It has been a school where students have come to believe in themselves, have accomplished more than they thought possible, and have made life-long attachments after thinking that friends were just something other people had. Hampshire Country School is a place for boys with high intellectual potential that has not been realized and with idiosyncrasies that may have become major problems in traditional settings. The school provides an unusual environment in which those problems are no longer as significant — not because they have been “fixed,” but because the school’s focus is on the bright, active, engaged, and engaging side of each child rather than on his quirks or limitations. If an intellectual, unusual, or eccentric boy who does not fit in other environments has been longing, perhaps without saying so, for a place where he can belong and grow, Hampshire Country School may be the answer. Hampshire Country School is a non-profit 501(c)3 educational organization governed by a Board of Trustees. It is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. Professional memberships include the National Association of Independent Schools, The Association of Boarding Schools, the Independent Schools Association of Northern New England, and the Small Boarding Schools Association.

- Coupled with our small class sizes and individualized instruction, the MCDS curriculum is the cornerstone of one of the country’s finest college-preparatory educations. An inspiring learning environment is critical for maintaining our academic standards. Beginning with our esteemed faculty who exuberantly share their knowledge and love for learning daily, it continues with parents dedicated to providing the support children need for quality education. And last, but certainly not least, students embody our everyday lessons of respect, acceptance, and understanding. MCDS is an IB World School and accredited by the Independent Schools Association of the Central States (ISACS) and is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS). Selecting the best school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make in your lifetime. Madison Country Day School is a choice available to your family as you consider which school best fits your children. We believe that the “one size fits all” approach is not appropriate for an endeavor as important as your child’s education and preparation for a meaningful life. Our school is best defined by its community. As a fully accredited independent school, Madison Country Day School first and foremost distinguishes itself by the freedom to set its course—as such, we purposefully have established a school community in which every child is valued for her or his individuality. Madison Country Day School is a student-centered school—a school where each child is truly known. This is first and foremost evident in the expert care and instruction our faculty delivers in a highly personalized yet focused school environment may that be the academic classroom, the athletic fields, the many fines and performing arts spaces, the nature-rich campus, or the many field trip destinations. Your child’s individuality is honored at our school by two core beliefs. Firstly, we believe that every child possesses an extraordinary capacity to learn. We are awed by the potential each child offers our community, may that be the local or global stage. Secondly, we believe a child’s effort is generally more important than ability. This implies that our teachers are focused on fostering a child’s motivation, fully well knowing that the greatest reward a child can experience is the moment a child jubilantly proclaims “I got it,” or “I did it,” or “I love this.” A good dose of intrinsic motivation is the foundation to healthy confidence to work toward a great outcome—in our case, the International Baccalaureate Diploma, a globally accepted certification of excellence and achievement. It takes great teachers to provide such a foundation—and we have such teachers at Madison Country Day School. The mission of Madison Country Day School is to provide an intellectually stimulating, personally enriching, and academically challenging program in the liberal arts and sciences to an able and diverse student body. Furthermore, we measure the curriculum and student achievement against the finest programs in the world. We also contribute to the larger community by developing effective educational programs to serve as models for other private and public schools. From this shared mission and set of beliefs, we have established a series of expected outcomes. We expect all students to: Read fluently and critically Write clearly and authentically based upon knowledge and personal experience Speak persuasively, able to challenge others’ beliefs and articulate their own Reason carefully, analyze complex situations, discover connections, and solve a wide range of intriguing problems Listen attentively with an open mind to ensure they are understanding the words as well as the meaning of the speaker Possess the confidence and strength of character required to both love and critique themselves Become confident, capable, humble, and interesting life-long learners. We take pride in developing students that are not only intellectually astute but also engaging and personable. MCDS is committed to measuring our curriculum and student achievement against the finest programs in the world. Academic excellence at MCDS begins with a rigorous, world-class curriculum, immersing students in the arts, sciences, and languages from the moment they step into a classroom. Combined with small class sizes and instruction that challenges and supports each student, the MCDS curriculum is the cornerstone of an exceptional college-preparatory education. Students do not simply memorize facts. To think like a scientist or historian takes much more than knowing information. Students and teachers engage in our curriculum through a combination of in-depth discussions, seminar-style classes, and projects that explore real-life applications. MCDS graduates are well prepared to tackle the challenges that lie ahead as tomorrow’s leaders with strong analytical, idea generation and communication skills. Further, an emphasis is put on interdisciplinary understanding, so that our students are prepared to address the complexities that await them when they graduate. We live in a time when information and facts are available in the palm of your hand. Thus, a world-class education requires teachers dedicated to helping students make sense of those facts and understand what they know in the context of a rapidly changing world. MCDS teachers do this, all while knowing our students as individual people and learners. At MCDS, our experienced and dedicated faculty recognize and encourage the many talents of each student. In small classes of peers eager to learn, students form lasting friendships and working relationships with teachers committed to their success, allowing each student to truly soar. View full school
- At MICDS, we strive to live into our bold Mission as we cultivate students who are equipped with academic, social, and emotional intelligence. We shape future leaders who can contribute to a more positive, successful, global society by growing the skills and strengths unique to them as individuals. At MICDS, we strive each day to uplift our bold Mission as we prepare the whole person with the intellectual, social/emotional, and leadership skills they need to be successful and positive contributors to a diverse, global, and rapidly changing society. Below are the ways we—together as school administrators, faculty, staff, parents, and students—bring our Mission to life. We teach students to become resilient self-advocates who are developing into their best selves as they pursue academic excellence, individual achievement, and meaningful collaboration within the community. They acquire the skills to do so through our college preparatory curriculum, advisory, homeroom, enrichment programming, media literacy training, hands-on learning, and co-curricular activities such as athletics, the arts, reading and science groups, and other student activities. Through all of these outlets, we partner with parents and empower students to embody virtues such as respect, honesty, and integrity as they prepare to become confident and responsible citizens in the world they will inherit. We cultivate a learning environment in which all students, faculty, staff, and parents are valued, affirmed, and included as equal members of the community, embracing and celebrating race, color, religion, family structure, national or ethnic origin, socioeconomic background, sexual orientation, and gender identity. In addition to celebrating the diversity among us at MICDS, we also prepare our students to become culturally competent as they learn to thrive in a diverse world. Foundational to that preparation involves self-awareness, embracing difference, critical thinking, personal responsibility, and treating others with respect and dignity. In particular, we strive to impart compassion and empathy. We foster a life of discovery, where students pursue their passions in and out of the classroom. Through a variety of classroom and co-curricular activities, students explore their curiosities, innovate, develop a sense of agency and learn the necessary skills and awareness to be thoughtful and ethical leaders. In addition, they work toward advancing the greater good through service to others, in and throughout our MICDS community, locally, domestically, and abroad. At MICDS, we empower students to be upstanders, rather than bystanders. This means they become individuals who take a stand for their values in a respectful way. They speak up when those values are compromised or threatened, and they commit to holding themselves, their peers, and leadership accountable for good and right actions and behavior. We encourage members of the community to report any issues or infractions directly and immediately to an MICDS faculty member or an administrator. Furthermore, we ask students to do what is good and right, not just for them or their gain, but for the whole of the community, thinking especially about those who are most vulnerable. The excellence of an MICDS education is evidenced by the success of our alumni and the scholarship of our faculty and students. At MICDS, we offer challenging academic programs facilitated by educators who are innovative thinkers and leaders and who prepare students to develop academic and personal achievements beyond the classroom.

- Stuart is a Sacred Heart girls independent Jr. K–12 school in Princeton, NJ. In this all-girl environment, students are encouraged and expected to try new things, participate, work together, and be leaders. They live up to our high expectations by becoming as responsible as they are independent. With self-confidence and self-awareness, Stuart girls develop resolve, resilience, and perspective while learning to value others' perspectives. They are free to be their authentic selves while looking beyond themselves. Stuart students see their possibilities as limitless. Here, they are not just transformed but transform themselves into brave and bold, powerful, and wonderful young women. Stuart's mission is to prepare young women for lives of exceptional leadership and service through a challenging and innovative curriculum, superb teaching, and close attention to each girl's personal development. Part of an international community of Sacred Heart schools, Stuart is an independent Catholic school that welcomes and embraces students of all faiths and backgrounds, helping them become accomplished, committed women whose confidence, global perspective, and passion for justice will transform the world in which they live. Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat called on our Sacred Heart communities to model respect, compassion, forgiveness, and generosity. Therefore, Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart joins other schools in the Sacred Heart Network. They are called to live our daily lives, promoting universal respect. Each person is honored, loved, and cared for, and where young women are educated to an understanding of and deep respect for diversity. We believe a diverse community challenges us to make God's love visible in the world, improves our lives as we learn and grow together, and affords each of us a deeper understanding of our collective humanity. We expect all members of the Stuart community, being guided by a spirit of love, to accept individuals' differences, which include, but are not limited to, ability, age, ethnicity, family structure, gender, learning style, race, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. We believe that all in our community should feel valued and respected, share their knowledge and gifts, and be allowed to thrive as equal contributors in enriching life at Stuart. When girls come to Stuart, they enter a community that is both challenging and supportive. Given the freedom—wise freedom—to explore and grow strong, discover mentors and experiences that unleash the strength within. By the time our graduates leave Stuart, they are ready to make their mark on the world. Stuart girls are wonder-filled as well as excellent. They ask questions. They want to know more. Outstanding academics and inspiring faculty feed Their curiosity and zest to learn from preschool to senior year. Our teachers know girls and know each girl well. Like their college admissions, student achievements are almost as impressive as the girls themselves—who are sharp and focused, internally competitive, and externally collaborative. They are serious about and take ownership of their education. View full school

Besides our robust programming, our exceptional and beloved teachers support and develop each child through opportunities infused with joy, deep learning, and a commitment to character development. RPCS is a genuinely supportive community full of spirit and tradition. Roland Park Country School, a college preparatory school for girls, is dedicated to its students' intellectual and moral development. We cultivate creativity, independence of thought, the tenacity of purpose, self-discipline, and emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. We maintain high academic standards, uphold tradition, and promote innovation. We nurture a cooperative, resilient spirit within an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. In a diverse, inclusive, and joyful community, Roland Park Country School strives to instill in its students a lifelong love of learning and the responsibility to look within and beyond themselves to contribute to and serve as stewards and leaders of their communities. The standards of the Roland Park Country School are based on the School philosophy. As a member of the RPCS student body, each student is expected to act under this philosophy and to be aware that she represents her School both on and off-campus. A Roland Park Country School student is expected to have a sense of honor coupled with a sense of responsibility, to be considerate to others, and to exhibit qualities of truthfulness, sincerity, and self-discipline. She values the spirit of fellowship, which characterizes the spirit of RPCS, and seeks to contribute to School life. It is nothing short of honorable to have the responsibility of educating the future leaders of our society. It is a charge that must be approached with the utmost intentionality. To that end, RPCS is dedicated to embracing the diversity among us, seeking further opportunities to diversify across forms of identity, and preparing our students to go into the world to serve as change agents. We intentionally remind our students that they are responsible for standing up for what is right and initiating dialogue across differences, remaining true to their own identities all the while. We find every opportunity to educate them on how vital it is to see the world through the eyes of someone who experiences it differently. We cannot truly exist in this world as leaders without considering the perspectives of those who are often marginalized. At RPCS, we educate leaders by reminding them that pursuing diversity is their responsibility. Every day is a new opportunity to spark change. We at Roland Park Country School believe that girls and young women who build each other up will thrive. There is no hurdle too high for an RPCS girl because she has the collective support of her community, lifting her toward her goals. While this spirit certainly sets us apart from other schools, it is the effect on our graduates that is so remarkable: Roland Park Country School students develop a profound understanding of who they are and how to lead together to impact the world. We are a co-ed early childhood program serving children ages six weeks up to 5 years old. We believe that all children have the potential, curiosity, and interest to succeed, mostly when they are provided with the freedom to navigate their learning with experienced teachers' support. Our co-ed classrooms and teachers embrace the Reggio Emilia-inspired Philosophy, which allows for the teacher, child, and classroom to work in collaboration. This promotes inquiry, discovery, literacy, and numeracy to prepare RPCS preschool students for kindergarten and beyond. Our teachers support academic and character skills, such as persistence, curiosity, communication, creativity, and innovation. They observe and analyze all students' interactions, then plan and create a learning environment to guide each student as he/she progresses. This can take place indoors or in our outdoor classroom and gardens, allowing our students to have hands-on, authentic learning experiences at all times. This comprehensive and innovative approach sets our preschool students up for academic and personal success by establishing a strong foundation of academics and a love of learning. View full school

We believe a diverse community contributes to a more enriching experience for every adult and student at the School. Many studies conclude that diversity is the key to a thriving and happy environment in both educational and professional settings. As we prepare our students to be global citizens, we work to ensure that every child has the skills and awareness to embrace humanity in all of its diversity.

By doing so, Kentucky Country Day School prepares its students to live successful lives and make meaningful contributions to society. This mission is summed up in our motto: Citizen, Scholar, Steward. Technology is part of daily life for students at KCD. Our focus is on creating meaningful intersections between technology and the curriculum. We believe that the curriculum should drive technology instead of the other way around. We also believe that it is vital to match the right technology with the right age. This means using iPads in the Lower School, Chromebooks and Google Apps in our one-to-one Middle School program, and a one-to-one laptop program in the Upper School that supports both PCs and Macs. KCD was the first school in Louisville to implement a schoolwide STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Design, Math) curriculum and support it with our maker space. Known as the KCD Fab Lab, this hands-on fabrication laboratory is home to our robotics program and is equipped with 3D printers, laser and vinyl cutters, and a wide range of shop and machine tools. KCD is committed to building a school community that reflects the diversity of our city. Our students represent a range of races, ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and many of the world’s major belief systems, including Bahá’í, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Secularism, and Sikhism. We are a community that strives to appreciate and celebrate our differences, but we are united by one thing: we are all Bearcats. We are actively committed to fostering a socioeconomically diverse community. We awarded $2.5 million in financial aid this year, with an average distribution of $13,030. 26% of our students receive aid. There is a wide range of student groups that celebrate and support diversity. Over the last few years, these groups have included BOLD (Black Outstanding Leaders of Diversity), Culture Club (Desi and Asian Student Affinity Group), Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Fusion (Students of Color Affinity Group), Gay/Straight Alliance, International Students Organization, Multicultural Club, Muslim Students Association, and Union of Jewish Athletes. We believe that KCD offers the most acceptable academic program in the region. The backbone of that program is a rigorous and cohesive college-prep curriculum that balances tradition with innovation. Our students are expected to master a great deal of academic content. They are also challenged to develop the skills, work habits, and character traits essential for success in college and beyond. Our curriculum emphasizes collaborative and project-based learning because we believe that these are the best methods to develop essential 21st-century skills such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. Because of our small class sizes (about 16 students on average), our teachers get to know and respond to students as individuals, allowing them to focus on differentiation in the classroom. Our program is challenging, but students also learn that KCD is a safe place to take risks and stretch their boundaries. View full school

It is large enough to offer a wide variety of academics and extracurricular activities, but small enough to encourage students to participate and experience new things while discovering their passions. The Library's mission is to enhance the school's academic environment and provide students and faculty the support they need to be significant users of ideas and information. To support students' academic pursuits, the Library provides access to several high-quality online databases and over 16,000 print nonfiction and reference materials.

- Every child can achieve excellence. They need the right environment to help pave their way. At Glenelg Country School, our balanced, holistic philosophy of learning incorporates multiple disciplines that help children grow into exceptional adults. True to the country day school model, we carry the traditions of academic excellence, healthy living, diversity, athletics, the arts, and strong community involvement throughout all grade levels. Our varied classes and programs enhance the enrichment opportunities available for your child's exploration. Once they become young adults, they are well equipped to take advantage of all the opportunities life offers. Glenelg Country School cultivates a community that stimulates our students to realize their highest potential. Outstanding academic and enrichment opportunities nurture a passion for lifelong learning, personal integrity, and respect for others. By embracing the diversity of background, culture, and thought, our students are prepared to become responsible and contributing members of our global society. Surveying the educational landscape these days often requires an experienced navigator's skill and the courage of an ancient mariner, a willingness to take risks inherent in exploring rocky shorelines. What are we seeking? Succinctly put, we seek the "right" school for our children. We define "right" as synonymous with independence. If you hope to find a school where excellence is anticipated and is defined as supporting each student in their efforts to do their very best, a community where the partnership between school and family is a core element and an expected resource, you have steered in the right direction. For over 60 years, Glenelg Country School has been an educational community offering exceptional academics in a caring, family-oriented environment. We strive to value each individual in a supportive community, seeking challenges, opportunities, and balance for all our children. Integrity, mutual respect, responsibility, and service underscore our community held values, and critical inquiry, creative exploration, and independent thinking define our educational focus. We set our standards high, our expectations strong, and we provide personal support along the way. GCS is about options and opportunities. The arts are alive at our school, and physical activity and athletics are valued and encouraged. Ours is a dynamic community where two-year-olds and 18-year-olds share the same campus and values—where the quest for balance is woven into the intrinsic fabric of our mission. An outstanding faculty and beautiful campus with excellent facilities add to the overall quality of the Glenelg experience. Of course, this independence comes with significant responsibility. Therein lies the essential fuel for our endeavor—the energy that comes from synergy. We take the "response" in responsibility seriously and believe the mutual efforts required to support young people demand everyone's fullest attention. Schools are about change and growth, about inspiration and perspiration, for those seeking educational excellence and involvement in the lives of their children, for those willing to accept that responsibility, for those looking at education from a different point of view, welcome home. Glenelg Country School is the only educational institution in Howard County and the surrounding area to offer the Reggio Emilia approach. From Reggio activities and project-based learning in our Lower School to the learning opportunities that allow students to test their independence in Middle School and our college preparatory classes in the Upper School, our students get a unique learning experience that prepares them for a future full of higher learning.

- As you do your research, pay particular attention to the School's distinctions. We are one of only 50 Malone Scholars schools in the country (the only school in Texas). We are as proud to host a long-standing chapter of the Breakthrough Collaborative (a phenomenal national organization providing motivated students from public schools an opportunity for enriched academic experiences) as we are to be a founding member of the nation's only synchronous (live, not recorded) online learning program for high schools (through the Malone Schools Online Network and Stanford University). We provide the finest of athletics and fine arts opportunities to our students, including a celebrated ballet program that begins in fourth-grade and 23 varsity sports. Our commitment to learning through community service is part of whom we are as a school, with all divisions engaging in service-related programs. We also engage learners outside our community through the Duke Talent Identification Program (TIP), which brings high-achieving students to our campus twice a year for special Academic Adventures workshops. All of this happens on a truly stunning 104-acre campus. While giving you lots of insights on our School, a website can only go so far. The magic happens when you go from being online to in-person. When you are in the audience to see Seussical or to watch students wrangle steers in our time-honored Kindergarten Rodeo when you talk to an eighth-grader about hiking the South Rim Trail during his Big Bend Trip when you get a front-row view of a hard-fought field hockey game, and, mostly, when you meet FWCD faculty and students in person, then you start to know our School and our community. We are eager to share our story with you in person.

Teaching and learning at Cincinnati Country Day School are dynamic, rooted in academic excellence while remaining responsive to student needs and shifting 21st-century demands. We believe that, in order to thrive to potential, every child must be known and nurtured.

Our faculty is informed, collaborative, and in constant pursuit of making the classroom experience an effective and enjoyable one. At CCDS, learning by both students and faculty happens inside and outside the classroom, and we celebrate, nurture, and encourage creative thinking, individual excellence, and constructive collaboration.

We believe that all in our community should feel valued and respected, share their knowledge and gifts, and be allowed to thrive as equal contributors in enriching life at Stuart. When girls come to Stuart, they enter a community that is both challenging and supportive. Given the freedom—wise freedom—to explore and grow strong, discover mentors and experiences that unleash the strength within. By the time our graduates leave Stuart, they are ready to make their mark on the world. Stuart girls are wonder-filled as well as excellent. They ask questions. They want to know more. Outstanding academics and inspiring faculty feed Their curiosity and zest to learn from preschool to senior year. Our teachers know girls and know each girl well. Like their college admissions, student achievements are almost as impressive as the girls themselves—who are sharp and focused, internally competitive, and externally collaborative. They are serious about and take ownership of their education.

- At RPCS, we prepare our students to become lifelong learners and leaders. Committed to a healthy, versatile academic program, our School equips students with the 21st-century skills needed to succeed in the larger world. Roland Park Country School honors every child's particular passions and interests through academic endeavors that hone each student's unique analytical thinking and creative problem-solving skills while encouraging experience with leadership, fine arts, and athletics. Besides our robust programming, our exceptional and beloved teachers support and develop each child through opportunities infused with joy, deep learning, and a commitment to character development. RPCS is a genuinely supportive community full of spirit and tradition. Roland Park Country School, a college preparatory school for girls, is dedicated to its students' intellectual and moral development. We cultivate creativity, independence of thought, the tenacity of purpose, self-discipline, and emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. We maintain high academic standards, uphold tradition, and promote innovation. We nurture a cooperative, resilient spirit within an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. In a diverse, inclusive, and joyful community, Roland Park Country School strives to instill in its students a lifelong love of learning and the responsibility to look within and beyond themselves to contribute to and serve as stewards and leaders of their communities. The standards of the Roland Park Country School are based on the School philosophy. As a member of the RPCS student body, each student is expected to act under this philosophy and to be aware that she represents her School both on and off-campus. A Roland Park Country School student is expected to have a sense of honor coupled with a sense of responsibility, to be considerate to others, and to exhibit qualities of truthfulness, sincerity, and self-discipline. She values the spirit of fellowship, which characterizes the spirit of RPCS, and seeks to contribute to School life. It is nothing short of honorable to have the responsibility of educating the future leaders of our society. It is a charge that must be approached with the utmost intentionality. To that end, RPCS is dedicated to embracing the diversity among us, seeking further opportunities to diversify across forms of identity, and preparing our students to go into the world to serve as change agents. We intentionally remind our students that they are responsible for standing up for what is right and initiating dialogue across differences, remaining true to their own identities all the while. We find every opportunity to educate them on how vital it is to see the world through the eyes of someone who experiences it differently. We cannot truly exist in this world as leaders without considering the perspectives of those who are often marginalized. At RPCS, we educate leaders by reminding them that pursuing diversity is their responsibility. Every day is a new opportunity to spark change. We at Roland Park Country School believe that girls and young women who build each other up will thrive. There is no hurdle too high for an RPCS girl because she has the collective support of her community, lifting her toward her goals. While this spirit certainly sets us apart from other schools, it is the effect on our graduates that is so remarkable: Roland Park Country School students develop a profound understanding of who they are and how to lead together to impact the world. We are a co-ed early childhood program serving children ages six weeks up to 5 years old. We believe that all children have the potential, curiosity, and interest to succeed, mostly when they are provided with the freedom to navigate their learning with experienced teachers' support. Our co-ed classrooms and teachers embrace the Reggio Emilia-inspired Philosophy, which allows for the teacher, child, and classroom to work in collaboration. This promotes inquiry, discovery, literacy, and numeracy to prepare RPCS preschool students for kindergarten and beyond. Our teachers support academic and character skills, such as persistence, curiosity, communication, creativity, and innovation. They observe and analyze all students' interactions, then plan and create a learning environment to guide each student as he/she progresses. This can take place indoors or in our outdoor classroom and gardens, allowing our students to have hands-on, authentic learning experiences at all times. This comprehensive and innovative approach sets our preschool students up for academic and personal success by establishing a strong foundation of academics and a love of learning.
