The college counselors at North Shore Country Day did an excellent job guiding me through the college application process, both academically and emotionally. They helped me cultivate essays, refine my list of colleges, boost my extracurriculars, and gave me pep talks when needed, which was incredibly helpful during a challenging time.

The sense of community at North Shore Country Day is significant and enriching. Despite being in a smaller community, you get to know people from other grades, which creates a tight-knit and close-together atmosphere. It's a place where experiential learning is emphasized, and students have the opportunity to participate in various activities that might not be their strengths but offer areas for growth.

I would describe the North Shore Country Day experience as one that will change your expectations. When I started, I expected to focus solely on academics, particularly mathematics. However, I ended up furthering myself in English and humanities because of some inspiring teachers. I also didn't expect to pursue sports, but I returned to play golf because I enjoyed it and made great friends by participating.
