A Country DayCampus Tour
The values of the Country Day community are exemplified in the physical form of the campus. Its open walkways, main courtyard, and green space all invite community members to stroll, to converse, and to enjoy the outdoors as well as the interior learning spaces. The campus has relatively open boundaries that welcome visitors and ensure, again symbolically, that the School is not cut off from its environment, but is part of it.
Metairie Park Country Day School is unique in its proximity to a vibrant city while maintaining a serene, open campus on which to study, learn, play, and grow.
