Rolling Hills Country Day School

Country Day School is a premiere Kindergarten through 8th Grade school in the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Our elementary school (Kindergarten to 5th Grade) and Middle School (6th through 8th grades) offer small class-sizes and specialized educators in multiple subjects. We are an independent, WASC accredited private school serving families in PV, Torrance, Manhattan Beach, and all of the South BayAt Rolling Hills Country Day School, founded in 1961, we offer an educational environment that pursues excellence in the intellectual, moral, physical, and social development of our students in Kindergarten through Grade 8. While we present a forward-thinking curriculum, we are steeped in traditional educational values that foster ethical and independent work habits, community involvement, and strong interpersonal skills.

We provide an academic environment that challenges our students while nurturing them socially and emotionally. Our teachers create lessons that address varying auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learning styles. Teachers encourage curiosity, acknowledge responsibility, support creative ideas, and appreciate different points of view. Small group activities, together with shared learning exercises, allow for a healthy balance of cooperative, competitive, and individual experiences.

Country Day is more than a school; it is an outlet of expression and interest where students are taught more than concepts. Students actively engage others in effective and purposeful communication with empathy, clarity, and contact.
