PD is far more than a top notch TK-12 college prep school! It is truly a community of dedicated, attentive & engaged teachers, administrators, staff, parents & families. PD is our second home. The curriculum is rigorous, the extracurriculars are wide ranging, and mental health & student support services are exemplary. More importantly, the student service opportunities are limitless and students actively participate by choice. We chose PD due to their welcoming of diverse families, and my daughters have close friends from a wide range of backgrounds, religions, and ethnicities. My oldest daughter recently matriculated from PD to a highly selective college and hasn't missed a beat. PD prepared her to solve problems, think critically, manage her time, practice self-care and instinctively make a positive difference in the larger community. My youngest daughter at PD is thriving and discovering an intense interest in STEM activities, such as Radio Astronomy. PD is truly exceptional!
Our experience over more than two decades of children going there has been positive. On the good side, students are well prepared for college and, better than any other private school in Charlotte, they have achieved both diversity and integration. On the downside, I found as a working parent, that they did not make it easy to find the answers to pretty basic questions and was often frustrated by having to “figure it out.” Stress levels regarding academics are high in upper school. For the students’ academic results, you would think that their college placements would be more impressive. I believe they have some work to do in their guidance and placement departments. This is a good school if you value progressive ideas. If you are looking for a more traditional setting, you will be disappointed and the other Charlotte private schools may be a better fit.
We moved from the West Coast and started our daughter in 9th Grade this year and she ABSOLUTELY LOVES PD! It truly is a very special place.
There is a genuine, and very real sense of community at PD. Kindness lives here, so does acceptance, diversity, and empathy for others. Passion for learning, the arts, athletics, technology, community and global service lives here too and thrives!
The academics are challenging while being tempered with outstanding teachers who are approachable, supportive, and top notch in their field.
