Geneva Summer Camp for Young Children and Academic Year 2026-27 Registration remain underway!
Welcome to Geneva Day School!
As Potomac's hidden gem, we. . .
Cherish our Nature Sanctuary
As a Maryland Green School, we delight in such breathtakingly beautiful grounds, that many animals call it home.
Students equally feel "at home" in Nature's thrall. Lessons take place everywhere from our Monarch Butterfly Waystation, to our "outdoor classroom," to our bamboo forest, and even include expeditions to our
nearby creek.

Nurture the Whole Child
With warmth, we cultivate the social, emotional, physical, and cognitive
well-being of children.
Through our unique "Geneva Method," which advances student-interests in a discovery of
pre-academics, children experience school as a positive "first."
Personal determination, imagination, and JOY are found here.
Field Days bring out the exuberant "best" in us!
What could be more fun than taking a spin with friends?

Revel in our Independence
As a non-denominational community school located in the outskirts of
Washington DC,
we welcome families from throughout the country and around the world.
We may be small, yet our circle is wide.
Lessons often celebrate the home geographies of our students and the cultural milestones we all hold dear.
Students revel in the shower of cherry blossom petals, so characteristic of early spring.
Art takes many forms at our school. . . From encouraging personal expression to more structured lessons.

LOVE Learning;
It's Lifelong!
Students embrace lessons
in and out-of-doors.
In their own right, they become scientists, artists, mathematicians, authors, and even zoologists (class pets such as turtles, fish, and ducklings receive their ministrations).
Hooray for learning that's
just begun. . .
It is also true it is never done.
Out and about, our students take the lead this May. . .
Violet Bouquet
This young botanist turns her attention to our flower fields. It is as if she asks "won't you meet us by the Monarch Butterfly Waystation for Mother's Day bouquet gathering?"
Cloud Study
Environmental Education invites this conscientious study of clouds while exploring verdant
Maryland Green School grounds.
Let's hear it for
blue, white, and green!
Prism Discovery
A discovery of light with crystals leads this student-scientist to grasp ROYGBIV, truly. Light, with the assistance of shadow, brings this experiment to shine. Please ask us about the light spectrum!
Learn why we are so often considered "Best Preschool". . .
Our Geneva Method
There is only one Geneva Method as
pioneered by our innovative school.
Encouraging a lifelong love of learning!
Often considered the region's "Best Preschool," Geneva Day School provides award-winning classes and extraordinary programs for children aged two through kindergarten.
Join as a two. . . Our nurturing and innovative school grows with you. Many students maintain lifelong relationships and a number of graduates enroll their children so as to grant the gift of a Geneva education.
What creates such a following?
The Geneva Method, which promotes student-led discovery of traditional pre-academics, stellar instruction from passionate, highly trained staff, and inspiring settings in which to learn and play. . . .
An irresistible formula.
Curriculum Powered by STEAM
Student interests shape discovery of pre-academics.
Geneva's enriching, academic curriculum is powered by STEAM (science-technology-engineering-arts-math) and includes specialized:
Art,
Environmental Education, Mindfulness,
Music, and
Physical Education.
Maryland Green School of
Verdant Campus and
Nearby Creek
Our environment says who we are.
Our "outdoor classroom" presides over gorgeous Maryland Green School grounds, often visited by the very butterflies to which our Monarch Butterfly Garden is dedicated.
A tree stump obstacle course, fairy tale bridge, embankment slide, and invigorating playground lead to open fields which facilitate additional discovery. Relay races and team sports often take place here.
Young imaginations are especially stirred by our bamboo forest, encircled by child-proportioned teepees, and spangled by charming butterfly chimes.
From our wisteria-adorned trellis, which gilds the gateway to these spectacular grounds, to our nearby creek, which serves as a treasured destination throughout the warmer months, ADVENTURE beckons.
Geneva Summer Camp for Young Children
A lifelong love of learning often begins in the summer. . .
Fast friends are made here.
Every June, our award-winning Summer Camp for Young Children welcomes both new and returning campers.
Over the course of nine weeks, campers experience the trajectory of summer through thrilling themes which may include "Dinosaurs," "Ocean Animals," and "Three, Two, One. . . Blast Off!"
Whether skipping stones at our nearby creek, conducting a science experiment, or painting according to artistic inspiration, Geneva students (and campers!) hold the Geneva Method through their hands. . . And in their hearts.
