School History
Overview
Montessori School Of Madison is serving the Connecticut shoreline community since 1986.
Our school's aim is to help children build the foundations for a lifetime of creative learning, based on Dr.
Maria Montessori's belief: that each child is unique; that each child should be helped to develop to his or her fullest potential; that the early years are critical; and that children should have every opportunity to strengthen positive attitudes toward themselves and toward learning during those years.
Hamden Hall County Day School, an independent, college preparatory, coeducational PreSchool through Grade 12 day school, fosters the individual growth of every student. We challenge students to develop a strong sense of personal integrity, social responsibility, and a global perspective, while preparing them for demanding academic programs at the collegiate level.
Hamden Hall Country Day School continues to embrace the spirit of family that has defined the sampus since its opening days in 1912 as the nation's fourth country day school.
The Hamden Hall Experience starts with academic excellence as enhanced by our dynamic learning environment and fostered by our esteemed faculty. Our core values - excellence, support, participation, accountability, and respect - are interwoven in that overarching experience and are integral to the academic growth and success of every student.
