“Poughkeepsie day school creates transformative learning experiences that inspire intellectual curiosity, critical thinking, creativity, and compassion. We believe that education is a pathway to a more just society and sustainable planet. Through discovery, analysis, and reflection, our intentional learning community brings each child to a greater understanding of self, society, and the universe. The single largest priority of our budget is to deliver on this promise for children in grades prek-grade 12 in a safe and well-equipped educational facility. Our school emphasizes cultural competence, global citizenship, and centers an anti-oppression pedagogy. We are preparing a new generation of leaders to envision and create a more just world, and this will require deep respect and empathy for one another. To that end, we strive to create a community of students and staff with broad racial and economic diversity within a school that places equity, inclusion, and empowerment at its core. Further to the primary costs of the school, poughkeepsie day school prioritizes professional development that fosters the tenets of this second part of our mission statement as well as fundraising that supports this and need-based scholarships to create a diverse learning community.”
