About LCDS

Lancaster Country Day School is a private, independent, non-sectarian, coeducational, college-preparatory school. Founded in 1908, we now serve families from Lancaster and five surrounding counties in southcentral Pennsylvania.

On our 26-acre campus, over 530 students experience geographic, racial, and socioeconomic diversity combined with rigorous academic standards. And with our uncommonly low 8:1 student/teacher ratio, each of our students enjoys the rewards of a truly multi-dimensional education.

All of our students, from preschool through twelfth grade, are included under one roof - an increasingly rare approach which helps develop individuals who share a strong sense of community.

Our goal is to challenge, support and connect with our students - to give each of our young people the maximum opportunity to pursue their interests, their abilities, and their dreams.
