About Us
We are a coeducational, college preparatory, private school in Indian Hill, Ohio serving students from 18 months to 18 years. Since 1926, we have been focused on providing innovative preparation to our students, so they are ready to achieve success in college and life.
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.

Lower School Expands Creative Expression with New Pottery Wheel

Feb 27 2025

Lower School students have another outlet for creative expression! Tess Young, Lower School art instructor, now has two clay wheels to work with students to create ceramics and pottery. A grant from the Arts Alliance made the purchase of the second wheel possible. With the additional wheel, Ms. Young and a student can sit side-by-side and work through the pottery-making steps together.

Carlton Monroe, president of the Arts Alliance, looks forward to “continuing to support Country Day music, theater, and visual arts” as they did with the new pottery wheel and the recent addition of new professional lights for Keeler Theater.

Ms. Young believes creating with the clay wheels will teach patience and the importance of slowing down to think through each step in a process. "Since we've done a lot of hand-building, such as pinch pots, pottery is a nice challenge and something they must think through differently than anything they've tried before."
