Welcome from the Head of School
As you read our traditions, core values, and commitment to excellence, warmth, and joy, I hope that your exploration will lead you to campus to see us in action. When you walk through the door, you’ll discover why my wife and I chose Triangle Day School for our three children.
Scholarship
Intellectual engagement lies at the heart of our mission at TDS. In small classes, thoughtful, creative, and dedicated teachers develop a wonderful rapport with the children, set the bar high, and then support students as they strive to reach their goals. Whether it’s a kindergartner reciting twenty-five digits of pi, a fifth grader researching a city for his entire class to visit, or an eighth grader presenting her research project to the school community, our students find joy in learning, take pride in achievement, and develop a healthy self-confidence which serves them well in high school and beyond.
Character
At TDS, doing good is more important than doing well; this is best seen in our core values. Held to high standards, students understand the importance of integrity and respect. Engaged in close relationships, students appreciate the value of kindness and empathy. Presented with opportunities to lead and to serve, students learn the significance of selflessness and compassion.
Community
At TDS, every student feels known, connected, valued, and loved. We are small by design, and everyone matters here. Come wander our hallways, and you’ll see a kindergartener give a hug to a seventh grader. Within a safe, comfortable environment, students take intellectual risks and feel free to be who they are. In the process, they discover who they can be.
I look forward to meeting you during your visit to campus.
Sincerely,
