There are precious few Einsteins among us.
Most brilliance arises from ordinary people working together in extraordinary ways.
Roger Von Oech Chico Country Day School was founded by parents, business persons, and educators who shared a vision to build a school that would guide its students towards a better understanding of their world via a very active brand of learning .They believed that elementary education creates the confidence, skills, and habits that serve children throughout their lives. Their aim was to produce an effective community of learners who were self-confident, broadly educated, who possess ethical standards against which they can judge the choices they are required to make, and who were eager to contribute to a changing world. Out of this vision, Chico Country Day School was conceived. The founders prepared a strategic 6 - year plan based upon extensive research, and discussion with parents, educators, businessmen, and local community members. Chico Country Day School will be a learning institution, evolving, changing, and at times taking risks, always learning from mistakes and moving toward excellence.
