The Primary Day School in Bethesda, Maryland, is a school for boys and girls from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 2. We are the only school in the area that focuses exclusively on children in this unique age group, and we do so for a very important reason. These are the most crucial learning years in children’s lives, a time when they are bursting with potential, ready for quantum leaps of development. At Primary Day, everything we do focuses on helping young children flourish—as learners and as people—during this vitally important time of life.
The Primary Day curriculum is designed specifically to engage these very young learners. Children gain essential building blocks in reading, writing, mathematics, science, art, social studies, and other areas, creating a firm foundation for ongoing school success and continued personal growth.
And all of this happens in a warm and compassionate environment—with a little bit of magic sprinkled in—so that children can take confident steps toward a future filled with promise.
