"Inspiring gifted children to reach their potential through inquiry, curiosity, and wonder." Seattle Country Day School is a private, not-for-profit K-8 program specifically designed to address the needs of highly-capable children. SCDS embraces a student-centered approach and places emphasis on the education of the ‘whole child’ by nurturing curiosity, putting inquiry into practice, and incorporating social-emotional learning. The 2.4 acre campus—established in 1964 by parents seeking tailored education for their gifted children—presently sits on top of the north slope of Queen Anne Hill in Seattle, Washington. With a student-centered, whole-person approach, SCDS’s mission carries on: to cultivate the next generation of creative problem solvers for tomorrow’s complex problems.
