Portrait of a Graduate

We believe a school should not only provide a pathway towards learning but also help students arrive at their intended destination confident, inspired, and with a sense of optimism. 

Metairie Park Country Day School enriches the lives of talented young people in a dynamic learning environment, building strength of intellect and strength of character within a community that is simultaneously challenging and supportive. Our students learn to be flexible, to be adaptable, and to face the challenges of life with honor, optimism, confidence, creativity, and a sense of humor.

In pursuit of our mission, we have prioritized four essential outcomes for all of our graduates: Curiosity, Critical Thinking, Character, and Citizenship. With these outcomes as guidance, students are better equipped to adapt to challenges and remain open to the possibilities of the future throughout their academic careers.
