Beaver Country Day School is an independent day school serving 460 students in grades 6-12, and located in Chestnut Hill, just outside of Boston. Founded in 1920, we strive to expand the nature of school, propelled by our progressive roots, innovative educational philosophy, and student-centered approach. Our location and philosophy allow us extraordinary opportunities to broaden the students’ learning through experiences all over the greater Boston area. We combine rigorous academics with real-world application, focusing on teaching not just content, but also on how to put it to use effectively. The school fosters a joyful environment where risk-taking and authenticity are encouraged, where everyone—students and adults alike—feels a sense of belonging, and where teachers have the freedom to innovate and grow alongside their students.
