Kingsbury Country Day School exists to provide students the time and space needed to authentically develop social, emotional, and academic skills. Our school is off the beaten path for a reason - when students unplug and enjoy our one hundred acre, wooded campus they can investigate meaningful content and develop character traits that are critical to a well-rounded learner. By fostering positive relationships between students, families, and faculty, a thriving, healthy school community can continue educating students in the Kingsbury Way.
