Celebrating 80 Years of Evansville Day School

For 80 years, Evansville Day School has been a place where students are encouraged to explore, discover, grow, and become who they are meant to be. What began in 1946 has grown into a community that continues to shape generations of students while staying true to the values that have guided EDS from the beginning.

Our 80th year is more than a celebration of a number. It is an opportunity to honor the people, memories, traditions, and milestones that have shaped Evansville Day School, while looking ahead to the future and the possibilities still to come.

Throughout this special anniversary year, we are celebrating the many generations of students, families, faculty, alumni, trustees, and friends who have made EDS what it is today. We invite our entire community to celebrate this milestone with us.

Celebration Day Events

The celebration continues on Friday, November 13, with two special events bringing our community together. Join us throughout the day as we celebrate 80 years of Evansville Day School and the people who have been part of its story.
