Academics
We are here to support every child’s learning path in every way possible and provide an exemplary experience that will serve all of our students well now and in the future.
Admission
Our admission office staff is committed to helping families understand the unique benefits of a Country Day education. Our goal is to make Country Day affordable to those students who are admitted through the admission process.
School Life
Fostering a community in which every student feels a sense of belonging and well-being through equitable and inclusive curricular and co-curricular practices further magnifies our guiding principle—to ensure a school environment where every student, 18 months to 18 years, is known and nurtured.
The Country Day Difference
Country Day is like no other. Students are known and nurtured. They pursue their unique gifts and seek answers. They discover talents, serve others, and live with integrity.
Arts
At Cincinnati Country Day, we cultivate artists and advocates of all ages and at all skill and interest levels. Our team of professionals is dedicated to instilling an understanding and appreciation for the arts in the classroom, in nature, on the stage, or in gallery spaces.
Athletics
Our goal is to provide a comprehensive experience through physical activity and interscholastic play that promotes the development of the heart, the mind, and the body for all our student-athletes. Our athletic program provides each student-athlete with an opportunity to grow as a person, a teammate, and an athlete.
Giving
Country Day’s strength is rooted in its history of philanthropy. From its founding in 1926, with gifts of land to establish the campus, gifts of cash to develop the early buildings, and countless volunteer hours, Country Day has been built by the generosity of its community.

Class of 2035 Plants Lifer Tree

Oct 6 2022

On Thursday, October 6, the kindergarten class – the Class of 2035 – planted their "lifer" tree. A tradition going back seven years starting with the class of 2028, the lifer tree symbolizes the start of a Country Day student's journey throughout the school. Each year, the kindergarten class plants a Kentucky coffee tree on the campus, in the Lifer Tree Grove.

This year, kindergarten teacher Lee Ann Bertsch read the book "We Planted a Tree" by Diane Muldrow to 41 kindergarteners prior to the planting ceremony. Before the planting, Head of School Rob Zimmerman '98 shared some words with the young students.

"We plant this tree because this world is ours to take care of and to celebrate the beginning of your journey as a student at Country Day," said Zimmerman.

As one student commented, “We plant this now for the tree to grow while we are growing.”

Next time you’re on campus, walk through the Lifer Tree Grove and see all the trees we’ve planted since 2015.
