  • “In a co-ed school environment, boys and girls have an opportunity to talk to each other and understand each other better. When you see boys AND girls do well at lots of different things, every day, you see the world not only differently, but better.”

    — Thomas, Grade 6

  • “As a CDS student, you are given opportunities by the coaches to learn and pick up a sport and be part of a team, no matter what skill you are at.”

CDS Voices

Land Acknowledgement

The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
