My son recently switched from another school to Countryside Day School, and I'm so happy we made the decision. Previously, my son was not happy to go to school. When asked what he did each day, his response was usually, "I don't remember." Rarely was he happy that Monday was coming and that it was time to go back to school. Additionally, I would only see other parents during drop-off and pick-up, which made it quite difficult to build relationships or for my son to see his friends outside of school. Since enrolling at Countryside, our dinners together are filled with stories and lessons learned at school. He also shows greater interest in reading, writing and painting at home, which was never viewed as a positive activity before. I've found that most parents are very involved outside of school hours and school days. I've participated in several activities outside of school where we had fun and built relationships with other families that have a strong presence in my son's life.

This school is not for everyone. It's for parents that believe character is just as important as academics for their children. It's for parents that embrace the Montessori philosophy not only in school but at home. Our kids enjoy learning here; learning Respect, Responsibility and Resourcefulness. C...

This school is nothing short of amazing! They focus on manners, critical thinking and working well with others over memorizing facts. My daughter has gone here since she was 9 months old and she has always been very advanced for her age (which I almost fully attribute to this school). She's very wel...
