The Greater Dayton School is Ohio's first private PreK-8th grade school for kids from under-resourced communities in the Dayton region. We provide student scholarships worth nearly $30K to access a world-class education.

From the very start we were determined to look at education differently – that includes our definition of success. While most schools focus on test scores and other measures of academic achievement, we focus instead on the only metric that matters: what kinds of people our school produces.

Our goal is that - by age 27 - at least 80 percent of our alumni are …

-Successful by their own definition
-Physically and mentally healthy
-Living lives of character and integrity
-Financially independent
-Established in a career
