Discover Countryside Day School
Over 50 Years of Authentic Montessori Excellence in Northbrook
Why Montessori? Why Countryside?
Choosing the right school is about more than just academics — it’s about values, purpose, and how your child grows into a confident, capable person.
At Countryside Day School, we offer:
- An authentic Montessori experience for children 16 months through 6th grade
- Small-group, personalized instruction — no “front of the room” lessons
- A legacy of excellence since 1967, led by nationally recognized educators
- A deep commitment to Respect, Responsibility, and Resourcefulness
Whether you’re just starting your school search or comparing options, this session will help you see what sets Countryside apart from public schools, daycares, and Montessori-inspired franchises.
