Financial aid

Country Day offers a need-based tuition assistance program for students entering Pre-K through Grade 12 to bridge the gap between a family’s contribution and tuition costs. Financial need is not a factor in admission decisions, and the process is confidential.

Before & after school care

No extended-care hours or rates on file yet. This is one of the biggest surprise costs for working parents — if you know what before- and after-care runs here, add it below.
