Geneva Day School encourages a lifelong love of learning through exceptional classes and extraordinary programs for children aged 2 through kindergarten.
Its spiraling curriculum is powered by STEAM and includes specialized art, environmental education, music, mindfulness and physical education. Staff are passionate and highly trained, including in the Geneva Method, which promotes student-led discovery of pre-academics.
In the words of our seasoned instructor, Mrs. Jay, “Geneva is a global village where staff are always ready to listen and children are loved, supported and encouraged to be their best.”
Sense-of-self flourishes as young scholars define their interests and see themselves as custodians of the environment. Accordingly, the Geneva Method celebrates student contributions, whether these occur while tending gardens, devising science experiments, or engaging in field trips. Earth Day is every day.
As Potomac’s hidden gem, Geneva is a Maryland Green School with a sprawling campus and nearby creek. An innovative “outdoor classroom,” bamboo forest, tree-stump obstacle course, Monarch Butterfly Waystation, and thrilling playground invite adventure throughout all seasons.
