About The Country School
The Country School, a private day school in Madison, Connecticut, is a dynamic learning community where students in PreSchool through Grade 8 are encouraged to reach their highest, not only in school but also in life. At The Country School, learning comes alive each day through hands-on exploration and discovery. Inspired teachers, small class sizes, and a culture that fosters a feeling of family allow for strong bonds to develop between students and teachers.
Our program starts with rigorous academics. The Country School is committed to advancing 21st Century skills, including critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity. Signature programs such as STEAM (cross-curricular science, technology, engineering, arts, and math), Outdoor Education, Elmore Leadership, and Public Speaking are some key areas in which we foster these skill sets. Because we seek to educate the whole child, The Country School is also committed to a vital arts program, strong offerings in physical education, and challenging opportunities for individual growth. Country School students face the future with confidence and determination.
