Shady Side Academy has two elementary school campuses. At
theCountry Day School, our 17-acre campus in Fox Chapel, we
help students develop a foundation that is centered in academics
and the arts, where each child may achieve both academic success
and personal self-confidence. Each day children get the guidance
and reassurance they need to keep exploring. This is a place where
children grow, develop, discover - and learn how to keep searching
and discovering for a lifetime. Faculty, together with their
students, seek new opportunities and challenges outside the
textbook and beyond the basic courses. We want teachers to teach
students to learn in whatever ways work for them and see each
student as an individual. Our second campus, the Junior School, is
located in Point Breeze.
