| Ask
any teacher or parent about the most important aspect of education
and more often the response will be the student/teacher ratio. According to a four-year study conducted in Tennessee, observations confirmed "children who were originally enrolled in smaller classes continued to perform better than their grade-mates (whose school experience had begun in larger classes), when they were returned to regular-sized classes in later grades. After the four year study, it was clear that the smaller classes did produce substantial improvements in earlier learning and cognitive studies." (Fredrick Mosteller, Ph.D.) |

that said, McGinnis Woods Country Day School has made a commitment
to smaller classes. Pre-K4 - K class size teacher-student ratio strives to be 1:9, with a maximum
class size of 18. 1st grade ratio is 1:10. 2nd thru 8th grades ratio is 1:11 with a maximum
of 22 per class.
