"For the past four years, the Dawson School has been our partner in educating our daughters. The combination of Dawson’s elevated academic expectations, interactive learning opportunities, dedicated teachers, small class sizes, beautiful campus, safe environment, and tight-knit community cultivates an atmosphere where our daughters can excel intellectually, socially, and emotionally. They are learning to work hard, problem solve, and help others, while having fun and building meaningful relationships."

For 50 years, Dawson has been meeting each student where they are, and then developing them into tomorrow's leaders, thinkers, and creators through a rich and varied educational program. Students experience relevant, real-world learning, discover passions, develop character and leadership, and cultivate the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in college and beyond -- all in a supportive environment that recognizes them as individuals.
