We have two kids in the school, one in Early Kindergarten and the other is in an infant class. My 4 year old is reading, doing math, learning Spanish, knows about the planets. It is really unbelievable how much the kids learn. The teachers are interactive and wonderful. The afterschool clubs are interesting (drama club, gymnastics, swimming, soccer, cooking club, Mandarin Chinese). She has really blossomed since starting there. Also, I love that my older child goes to school in the same place where my infant is in day care because it just makes my life easier.
The school is fantastic. We have two kids in the school one is 6 yrs and the other 3 yrs. We placed the 6 yr old in public kindergarden thinking given the great reputation for public schools in the area he would do well. Unfortunately, the public school had 28 kids in kindergarden. My child was bored and he was not learning. We even placed him in Kumon for additional work that the public school was not providing. We were frustrated with public school as our son is bright and they would not make special accommodations for kids like him. We placed him back in the school and he loves it. I am just amazed at what he is learning there is real curriculum , real books, science, music , and real math. He is doing word problems and is a beginning reader. Mrs Rogers is just amazing and she really cares about each child. It seemed like no one could care less about my child in public school. It is a financial sacrifice for our family but money well spent. I can sleep well at night knowing they are in good hands.
MCD really focuses on academics. All of the children are learning material that is at least one grade level higher than their peers at public schools. I have been sending my daughter for the last three years here and she loves it. Very individualized attention for each student. Last year they introduced after school clubs that are amazing - swimming, horseback riding, gymnastics, etc.!
Mendham Country Day School is a great environment for children. They provide individualized attention to each child, allowing them to excel beyond what I thought was possible. The loving and caring staff makes me comfortable leaving my child while I go to work.
