An Education That Inspires. A Community That Feels Like Home.
The world is changing quickly, and education should do more than keep up. At Evansville Day School, students learn how to think, adapt, and lead in an ever-evolving world.
As Evansville’s only independent school, we offer a student-centered education from Junior Pre-K through Grade 12, where curiosity is encouraged, confidence is built, and students are empowered to turn ideas into action.


Small by Design. Personal by Nature.
Our intentionally small class sizes create an environment where every student is known and supported. With an 8:1 student–teacher ratio, learning is personal, relationships are strong, and growth is intentional.
Students develop confidence and responsibility early—through leadership opportunities, collaborative learning, and meaningful connection with teachers and peers.
A Learning Experience Built for What’s Next
Day School prepares students for more than the next grade. Through leadership development, real-world learning, and personalized guidance, students graduate ready for college and beyond.
From early exploration to individualized college counseling, students are supported at every stage as they discover their strengths and define their path forward.
An Independent School with a Distinct Advantage
As an independent, secular school, Day School has the freedom to design learning around students—not mandates or standardized testing.
Our classrooms emphasize inquiry, problem-solving, and open dialogue, helping students build the confidence to think independently and engage meaningfully with the world.
A Community Where Students Belong
Belonging is built into daily life at Day School. School-wide traditions, cross-grade connections, and shared experiences create a community where students feel valued and supported.
These relationships shape not only the student experience—but the kind of people our graduates become.


A Strong Start in Early Childhood
Our Early Childhood program provides a thoughtful foundation for lifelong learning. Through a balance of play, exploration, and structure, young students build independence, curiosity, and confidence in a nurturing environment.
Every experience is designed to support growth—academically, socially, and emotionally.
Opportunity Within Reach
Day School is more accessible than many families expect. Through merit scholarships, tuition assistance, and Indiana’s School Choice Scholarship Program, we partner with families to make an exceptional education possible.
Your Child’s Journey Starts Here
Choosing a school is about more than academics—it’s about finding a place where your child will be known, challenged, and inspired.
We invite you to take the first step in exploring Evansville Day School.
