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.

John Raushenbush

Former Cincinnati Country Day School Headmaster John C. Raushenbush died on January 21, 2023, after a short illness and was surrounded by the love of his family during his final days.

He was an important leader in the history of Country Day, serving as the school’s eighth headmaster from 1977 – 1994. He oversaw a period of growth and ascendancy, with CCDS firmly establishing itself as one of the leading independent schools in the Midwest.

If you have an anecdote, photo, or reflection to share about John, we would love to hear from you. We plan to share everything we collect with his family and our community in the coming weeks and months. Cincinnati Country Day School will always be indebted to John Raushenbush. His legacy remains visible to this day.
