The Country School is private school with a public purpose. In addition to our admission events like open houses, we also have events that bring learning and fun together for students and parents. We host family STEAM expos, partner with local booksellers for author talks, conduct panel discussions that focus on parenting, and more. Our goal is simple: create opportunities that connect and inspire our local community.
