Dedham Country Day School believes that balance matters—in learning and in life. They combine challenge with support, pedagogical tradition
with innovation, and robust academics with outstanding arts and athletics to create a program that is balanced and whole. Children learn who they are as diverse individuals and as part of a broader community. Acceptance is a given, and children find encouragement in every connection they make. It’s a community that nurtures, nudges, and gives. That’s how DCD grows “whole” children with the intellectual and emotional capacity to contribute to their world and enjoy meaningful lives. Visit DCD’s 17-acre campus and you’ll get an immediate sense of how children learn to think creatively and critically. From pre-K to grade 8, students tackle hands-on projects, collaborate, take risks, solve problems, and, most of all, enjoy their experience.
