We believe our purpose is not merely to fill a child's head with facts. Rather, our purpose is decidedly more idealistic: to transform children with the deep knowledge, the real-world skills, and the authentic self-awareness they need to live lives of peace and purpose. We believe that every lesson should challenge our students' big brains, utilize their active hands, and capture their huge hearts.
Which is to say, we engage our students cognitively, physically, and emotionally-whether in a classroom or on top of a 14er. We believe in the exponential power of relationships and cherish the idea of community. In our small-by-design classes and within our warm campus culture, we emphasize interpersonal collaboration, foster vertical student friendships, and embrace parent-teacher-child dynamics.

Founded in 1971 by Larrie and Bjorg Wanberg as Evergreen Creative Preschool, Evergreen Country Day will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2021.
Utilizing various rented church spaces for nearly twenty years, in the early 1990s and after being renamed Evergreen Mountain School, the school relocated to leased space in the Bergen Park Shopping Center and remained there until Evergreen Country Day School's current campus was purchased and constructed in 2005.
