Hogarth Country Day School

The Hogarth Country Day School is a small, private, state-licensed preschool established in 1980 and located in Epping, New Hampshire. In fact, we are one of the few New Hampshire state-licensed preschools solely dedicated to education. Although we do care for the children enrolled here, we are not a child-care facility. The Hogarth Country Day School is an early education institution where the focus is squarely on one population. Preschoolers.

Early childhood is a critical time in any person's development. Early experiences lay the foundation for all that follows. There is no better academic or social cornerstone than a Hogarth preschool education. At Hogarth, we aim to enrich the whole child. We are invested in every child who has every graced our classroom!

The following quotes were taken from notes, letters and emails received from Hogarth parents and former students over the years.  The originals are available for viewing at Hogarth.

The community you have made is fantastic – one that shows love is the way — the way to fun, to learning and to strength. Thank you for being the best first teacher we could have hoped for. I wish it were for longer! You really have created a valley of love and delight!  C.L.

It has been said that every great organization has a clearly defined and vibrant culture and the Hogarth Country Day School has such spirit!  Your academic program is clearly defined, comfortably sequenced and substantive, however, I am pleased to say that is not the focus of your preschool experience.  Hogarth consistently integrates a wide variety of creative experiences that enrich the lives of children.  Whether through dance, foreign language, drama, art, athletic development or conversation, these activities lead to the development of whole children.  Children who are interesting, confident, and most of all, ‘ready and eager to learn’.  From my experience, I know that this type of environment is not the result of chance or coincidence.  Rather it results from the hard work, cooperation, talents and knowledge of people who care.  You are such people, and for this we thank you.  M.J., M.

I could not be more pleased with our experience at Hogarth! Thank you so much for helping us to raise a happy little girl. You are an amazing educator and we can’t wait to see you again in the fall.  A.L. 

Thank you so much for giving our daughter a wonderful first year of school. I couldn’t imagine her having a more dedicated, caring and loving teacher than you! I truly feel that Hogarth was the best choice for her and for me! You made the transition from being home with me to going to preschool so smooth and easy for her. She has loved being in your class and has always talked about school so much. She’s been so excited to go. You truly are one of those rare teachers that children will remember all through their school years!  T.R.

Thank you for a wonderful school year! You made our son’s first ever school experience such a great one! I’m so pleased with you and your program at Hogarth, and all of our son’s progress over the past school year! I’m so happy he’ll be returning in the fall!  J.P.
