About Metropolitan Day School

Metropolitan Day School is a private high school in Richmond, VA. Metropolitan Day School serves approximately 9 students, and covers grades 7th-12th, and has a 9:1 student-teacher ratio. MySchoolScout does not publish a rating for this profile because there is not enough verified data to rate it fairly.

Based on limited data: 0% component coverage.

What Parents Should Know

At 9 students, Metropolitan Day School is on the smaller side. That usually buys more individual attention and teachers who know every kid by name, with the trade-off of fewer electives and extracurriculars than a larger school can staff. Ask what activities it actually offers.

At 9:1 students to teachers, Metropolitan Day School sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.

Metropolitan Day School is private, so it runs independently of the local district and sets its own curriculum. That freedom cuts both ways depending on what you want for your child. If you're considering it, start with the practical questions: tuition, financial aid, and how admissions work.
