Detroit Country Day School

Early Childhood Education Center

Upon entering the front door of this award-winning school, students travel down a “village street” lined with trees, lampposts, mailboxes and clouds overhead. Seven interior cottages, all with separate front entrances, serve three- to five-year old students. At the end of the street, a little red schoolhouse serves as a collaboration area for gross motor activity. Victorian style details, color, trim and finishes are different in each classroom, giving a unique “personality” to each cottage. Learning studios feature a front and back porch, separate toilet facilities, and kitchen. A Castle Grounds outdoor play area also enhances gross motor skills.
