Speaking as a parent of an upper school student who recently graduated, the students are largely left to learn on their own with minimal/ inconsistent guidance from teachers. The school facility is in physical disrepair. There is little knowledge by faculty for how to administer 504's, and legal requirements were not followed for my daughter.

Wonderful school. Phenomenal teachers, really dedicated, smart people thinking deeply about how they teach. Wonderful community.

Poughkeepsie Day is a very small environment, the school administration has no clue on how to handle tough situations or any situation for that matter. there is clear favoritism among teachers so if you don't meet the ideal pds student type, prepare to get 'bad comments' and struggle in classes. there is almost no diversity and the food sucks. while there are many useful resources available, as a school known for college prep, the college prep program almost non existent. the academics in general can be amazing, but the overwhelmingly flawed social community overshadows any of that.

She’s now heading into third grade and has thrived. She’s an enthusiastic reader, loves math, and enjoys al...

PDS has been a game changer for our family. After moving to the area with little knowledge of the public schools, we were looking for something different for our curious and motivated kids. We started our younger daughter in pre-K and moved our older daughter to the school after a great first year....
