We write to you with exciting and historic news. The Greenwich Country Day School and The Stanwich School announce today that we have entered into an agreement in which GCDS will consolidate and assume all operations of The Stanwich School to open The Greenwich Country Day High School (grades 9-12).
With a unanimous vote to approve this agreement, your Board, with the support of our administration, faculty, and staff, will work to create the premiere, coeducational, independent high school in the country. After major renovations and enhancements on the current Stanwich campus over the next twenty months, the first students of the GCDS High School will enjoy a state-of-the-art facility and curriculum beginning in September 2019. This agreement will usher in the next significant chapter in the 91-year history of The Greenwich Country Day School.
We believe that creating an independent, coeducational, local high school option will significantly benefit our families—both now and in the decades to come. We also recognize that this exciting announcement raises many questions about how this development will influence and improve the GCDS educational experience.
