What does the future of K-12 education look like? How can we prepare students for their future and not our past?
At Presbyterian Day School, we're not just asking that question, we're working on answering it by leading the way with an innovative approach to elementary education.
Our mission statement is the same as it was in 1949:
Presbyterian Day School strives to glorify God by developing boys in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man
Whether they are learning to draw, play an instrument, or shoot a basketball, boys love the hands-on, active, creative approach that we offer at PDS.
That’s why each gets his own customized education plan and the support of our staff of learning specialists.
Boys are loud and messy and can't sit still. And that's completely okay. We're experts at directing that energy.
Our character education program, Building Boys, Making Men, is integrated into every corner of our campus.
Macbooks, Mandarin, Design Thinking, and Maker’s Club. Even our littlest guys are learning to code.
