Princeton Day School is a private school in Princeton, New Jersey. It enrolls about 900 students in grades junior kindergarten - 12. The largest division is the Upper School (grades 9-12), with an enrollment of about 380.
Princeton Day School is the result of the 1965 merger of two prominent Princeton schools. Miss Fine's School, a school for girls, and Princeton Country Day School, a school for boys, merged in order to form what is now PDS. Enrollment grew steadily, until the mid 1990's, when it began to slow. The population of the school has remained around 900 students since the beginning of the century.
Faculty members
A veteran of the education field, Barbara Walker teaches tenth grade English classes as well as the popular classes "Journey in Literature" and "Hero in Literature." She is also the Mock Trial Coach for the Princeton Day School Mock Trial team, which won both of its matches last year. Mrs. Walker is a skilled debater, and the advisor to the school's hugely popular Debate Club. Remarkably, Mrs. Walker was in a number of low-budget films, including "Sal Capone" and "A Break in Traditions." Mrs. Walker's husband Mr. Walker also teaches math at PDS and is known for his kind grading policy.
Ms. Walker holds degrees in English from Middlebury College, Dartmouth College, and the University of Maine. She is a member of the Comitatus.
George Sanderson teaches AP US Government, "Media and Law," and Economics in the Upper School. Mr. Sanderson is the dean of the Class of 2006 and the boss of the Senior Project Committee. He also helps Mrs. Walker coach Mock Trial.
The most interesting thing about Mr. Sanderson is that his stepfather is named "Van the Man." It should also be noted that Mr. Sanderson's office is notably larger and more comfortable than that of his colleague Barbara Walker.
Robert Singerman teaches Honors Precalculus, AP Statistics, and Advanced Topics in the Upper School. He is also known as Dr. Bob.
Eamon Downey teaches AP Comparative Government and AP US History. He coaches the Cross-Country and Model UN teams, and was named Prep Cross-Country "Coach of the Year" by the Trenton Times in 2005.
