For 125 years, Roland Park Country School has empowered girls and young women to follow their curiosities, pursue their passions, challenge themselves to excel in an academically rigorous environment, and commit enthusiastically to the entire process. Every student creates their own unique and diverse path in a supportive and joyful community.
Caroline, a ninth grader who is a member of Model UN and plays field hockey, basketball and lacrosse, loves the wide range of academic and extracurricular offerings to choose from at RPCS. Her favorite part of school is the close-knit community and how the girls across all grades have many opportunities throughout the year to learn and grow together. “RPCS is transformative and inclusive,” Caroline said. “The biggest lesson I will take away from my academic experience here is how to advocate for myself.”
Tenth grader Sienna appreciates how she can experience a well-balanced mix of academics, sports, wellness, extracurricular activities and relationships. For example, she was able to try field hockey while continuing to participate in Upper School Chorus. Sienna loves being able to try new things and continuing her favorite activities, including the Asian Student Alliance, Book Club, Think Pink Club, and track and field, without sacrificing academic pursuits or leadership opportunities. “RPCS empowers all of its students, encouraging them to be their best and take their seat at the table, ready to lead.”
The sense of community and belonging at RPCS is felt throughout all divisions. First grader Julianna’s favorite parts of RPCS are her teachers, especially her dance teacher, who is “the best teacher in the world!”
At Roland Park Country School, students build courage, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning in an environment where female leadership across all areas is the norm, not the exception.
