Georgetown Day School (GDS) is an independent coeducational PK-12 school located in Washington, D.C. The school educates 1,075 elementary, middle, and high school students in northwestern Washington, D.C.[1][2] Russell Shaw is the current Head of School.

Founded in 1945 by anthropologists Philleo and Edith R. Nash, as Washington's first racially integrated school, it is known for its progressive climate and dedication to social justice.[3] Students call teachers by their first names, and the high school allows students to leave the campus during school hours.[4]
