Dear Families,

Thank you for your interest in The Rumson Country Day School. Academic excellence, our emphasis on critical life skills and character development, and our strong community form the foundation for the truly great independent education that we are proud to provide at RCDS.

Our faculty members are experts in their respective fields who are passionate about their disciplines. Our teachers also inspire in their students a love of learning, and they are dedicated to helping each child progress academically, socially, and emotionally throughout their time here.

Whether a child needs extra encouragement or a greater challenge, they will find it at RCDS. Small class sizes create an inclusive learning environment in which our teachers provide differentiated instruction and form long-lasting, authentic relationships with their students that are the underpinning of their successful educational experience.

We strive every day to inspire curious, happy, energetic students who exemplify the School’s Four Pillars – Kind, Honest, Responsible, Respectful. Our alumni are regularly recognized for their strength of character and their leadership, which, along with their academic preparation and commitment to academic success, enable RCDS graduates to thrive at some of the most selective high schools and colleges in the country.

You can learn more about our educational experience by joining us for a virtual information session or scheduling an in-person tour.  We look forward to getting to know you and your child.

Respectfully,
Carson T. Smith
