Milwaukee Country Day School (MCD) was a country day school in Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, United States. It operated under the headmastership of A. Gledden Santer. The school was begun in 1911 and operated as a boys-only school until 1958, when girls were admitted.[1][2] According to alumnus Henry Reuss, "Country Day, with its Church of England prayers, its 'body sports' and its Latin studies, marked the general de-Germanization of Milwaukee culture which occurred in the 1920s."[3]
In 1964, the school merged with two other local day schools (Milwaukee University School and Milwaukee-Downer Seminary) to become the University School of Milwaukee. MCD's facilities became the South Campus of the new school, which operated until it closed in 1985.[4] The campus is now the home of the Milwaukee Jewish Day School[5] and the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center.
The school appears in the novel Shadowland by alumnus Peter Straub.[6]
