Amazing community feel at this school. Small class sizes is a huge plus!

Our family joined the Derby community last year and we have had a very positive experience. One of the things we love most about the school is that children are allowed to be children. There is time for play and curiosity all the way through Grade 8, while independence, responsibility, and academic rigor are all fostered. For the first time in a long time our middle school aged child comes home from school sharing stories about new topics and ideas that were explored in class. Our child has made many new friends and clearly feels connected to classmates, teachers and the routines and traditions that reflect Derby's mission to "improve both heart and mind."There are too many great opportunities to list here - academics, fine arts, athletics, philanthropy, and more. We would highly recommend Derby to other families looking for a school that takes a holistic approach to education and fosters a life long love of learning.
