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.
I love the title of the Presbyterian Day School magazine - “PDS Spirit.” Over the past months I have begun to realize the incredible spirit that is in this great place.
Boys bound into school each day with an energy and enthusiasm that makes the older generation wonder if we were ever that happy to come to school. Teachers create lessons that stretch the minds of our boys and, at the same time, find ways to love and nurture each and every child.
The spirit extends outside the classroom to Chapel, PE, The EDGE, and the playground. The boys of PDS play and work hard, and their contagious spirit is difficult to miss.
This issue of the PDS Spirit is about new beginnings. It is my honor to serve as the next Head of School of PDS and I look forward to connecting with students, parents, alums, and friends of the school. I want to hear your stories about what makes PDS a special place to you.
Together, we will create the next chapter in this great school.
Thank you,
Steve Hancock, Head of School
