Seattle Country Day School is a private/independent kindergarten–grade 8 school in Seattle, Washington. Created for gifted children, the school was founded in 1962 by a small group of parents dedicated to seeking a unique educational program for their children. In 1964 the school was officially incorporated as Seattle Country Day School under the directorship of Lucile G. Beckman. SCDS's curriculum is inquiry-based and integrates social emotional learning components into the core curriculum and advisory blocks. The school's campus is on the north side of the Queen Anne Hill neighborhood, near the Washington State Route 99 Aurora Bridge.
Originally housed in St. Elizabeth's church basement in Burien and conceived as an educational alternative during the Sputnik era of the late 1950s, SCDS developed through two interim organizations, Adastra and Phoenix , before becoming incorporated as Seattle Country Day School in 1964. For over 20 years, the leadership of its founding director, Lucile Beckman, guided the school. Following Heads of School include: Dr. Jayasri Ghosh 1986-2001, Chris Massi 2001-2003, Michael Murphy 2004–2018, and Kimberly Zaidberg 2018-present. In 1972, the school moved from its founding location to the old Forest Ridge Academy on north Capitol Hill, followed by a second move in 1974 to the Temple De Hirsch school building at 15th and Madison. In 1975 the present facilities on Queen Anne Hill were purchased.
