  • Potomac Glen Day School, originally Potomac Child Care Center, was established in September 1992 by Angela Tranquill.
  • In March of '94, PGDS was certified by the Maryland State Department of Education as a non-public school.
  • PGDS is located in the Parish House of the Potomac United Methodist Church at the intersection of Falls road and South Glen.
  • PGDS believes a child learns best through experience. There is no right or wrong way to do an activity.
  • Our teachers demonstrate and then the child is free to copy the example or create a new and unique outcome.
  • Our classrooms are set up for a traditional style of learning, where children are being educated while they are having fun.
  • We provide a sound, safe and secure environment that will enable the child to develop both educational and social skills, promote self-concept, and encourage a sense of responsibility and an increasing sense of independence.
  • We are a Christian school that teaches Christian values and the golden rule.
  • We are a school that builds pride and respect for a great nation.
