Academics at Carolina Day School

Carolina Day School is one school made up of four divisions: The Lower School, pre-kindergarten through fifth grade; The Key School, for bright students in grades one through eight with language-based learning differences; The Middle School, sixth through eighth grade; and The Upper School, ninth through twelfth grade.

We have nearly 700 students, 100 faculty members, and 3,500 alumni. We are a college preparatory school with a remarkable record of student achievement. Our upper school students average 200 points higher on SAT scores than state and national averages. Our graduates attend the finest colleges and universities in the nation. The vast majority go to their college of first choice.

Even more important, however, is preparing students for a lifetime of responsible citizenship, integrity, ethical behavior, and service to other members of the community at large. We are one extended family engaged in one enterprise - the growth and development of every member of the community.
