High school boys in classroom with teacher and computers

In 1967, computers were first introduced to our school community. Today, Cincinnati Country Day School is recognized as a leader in technology integration.

In 1996, Country Day became the first school in the nation to implement a 1:1 laptop program for students in grades 5–12. In 2003, we transitioned to tablets, becoming one of the first schools in the world to embrace digital ink. While the tools have evolved, our philosophy has not: curriculum drives technology, not the other way around. Touchscreen tablet PCs enhance learning by combining text, images, video, and handwriting, supporting both productivity and creativity.

Our technology program exists to support students and teachers. True integration happens when flexible tools are placed in the hands of capable faculty and learners. Every student in grades 5–12 and every faculty member Pre-K–12 is issued a tablet PC, with younger students accessing shared devices as appropriate. Tablets are used daily to create, collaborate, analyze, and communicate. With more than 700 tablets in use each day, Country Day students graduate with the skills and confidence to think critically and lead in an ever-changing global society.
