[quote=Anonymous]I've had two children about go through county day and a third starts next year--we are very happy! County Day is a loving and caring environment which is play based focusing on developing social and emotional skills. The school makes a point in getting the kids outdoors rain or shine, exploring nature and playing in one of several outdoor classroom spaces in their three acre campus. Yes the school is expensive, but worth it... there is an active parent community both in and outside of the classroom, an experienced administration that is supportive of families and arms teachers with the resources they need, and a host of long term teachers who make learning fun. My kids are excited to go to school everyday and are getting exposure to enrichments like science, music, art, Spanish and library all which have dedicated teachers. Another major bonus is that Dr Rene is on staff. She spends time in the classrooms with the children teaching them various skills like problem solving, taking turns and how to communicate with adults and peers. She also offers free parent workshops on everything from behavioral issues, potty training and how to use screen time effectively and can meet with parents individually about their specific needs gratis. I feel fortunate for the relationships with the families and the staff that I have made in my short time there. It is a special place indeed. [/quote]
