Head of School Welcome

Every child and every family is one-of-a-kind. It is by understanding each particular family and child, that we can best guide a child’s learning. Signing your child up in a school like ours is the beginning of a growth journey for the whole family.

City Country School

is a small school that

loves being a small,

because it permits us:

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  • to consider all our families in our decision making

  • to see each student as an individual

  • to provide opportunities for participation to all our students

  • to acknowledge and engage with the opinions and ideas of our students

  • to create a warm and inclusive community

  • to be nimble and dynamic in our responses to the needs of our families

  • to come to know each family´s personality and culture

  • to come to know each child´s strengths and interests, as well as challenges

  • to respond to those strengths and interests with opportunities, while scaffolding their challenges

  • to care for details

  • to cook our own lunches from scratch every day

Our Story

Founded in 2012 by Sarah Cardelús, a Spanish-American mother of twins, who wanted to create a learning environment in which children 3 to16 years old could be themselves, free of the notion that they have to be a certain way to have a place in this world. Sarah wanted to create a school in which children could experiment, collaborate, work hard and discover that there are many ways of finding answers, many answers, and many versions of success.
