School Mission & Objectives
The mission of Phoenix Country Day School is to provide students with a distinguished college-preparatory, liberal arts education for the growth of the whole person and as a foundation for success in college and in life.
In keeping with its mission, Phoenix Country Day School expects its students to develop a coherent body of knowledge in the humanities, the sciences, and the arts; significant academic, artistic, communication, and athletic skills; an understanding of Western civilization and its relationship to other cultures; aesthetic awareness and appreciation; intellectual acuity and independence; self-discipline and self-confidence; and sound moral and ethical values, including a commitment to honesty, justice, tolerance, and concern for others.
Phoenix Country Day School seeks to graduate students who will, throughout their lives, love learning and pursue wisdom; use their talents and skills for the greater good; and be responsible citizens in their local communities, their nation, and the world.
The Phoenix Country Day School community strives to be one in which each individual is recognized and valued, each voice is heard, and each considered opinion can find a forum. However, no forms of hatred, prejudice or bigotry are tolerated. We recognize the richness of the diverse threads that strengthen the fabric of the School. We endeavor to ensure that this fabric reflects the diversity of Arizona and our Nation. We want every member of our school community to value diversity and respect one another.
