In a world that changes with the speed of a mouse click, there is a school that provides children with the enduring tools they will need to learn, thrive, and succeed . . .
Our core principles of Reason, Responsibility, and Respect are more than just words on a logo – they are ingrained in everything we do and form the foundation of our students’ success . . .

In a school where every child is treated as an individual, our students out-score their peers in the Eastern Panhandle and the rest of West Virginia by 15-20% in math and reading according to state WESTEST results . . .



Under the direction of Advanc-ED, The Country Day School has completed a comprehensive self-study and review process which has resulted in an Advanc-Ed Team recommending CDS for full accreditation status. This national and state recognition designates The Country Day School as a school of excellence, and confirms that CDS provides our students with:

    NCA Seal
