Hamden Hall Country Day School
Educating Students in PreSchool Through Grade 12
At Hamden Hall we believe that all of our community members must feel included, heard, respected, supported, and cared for. We celebrate the uniqueness of each of us while sharing a communal identity and spirit as Hamden Hall Hornets!

Diversity Awareness

The Office of Inclusion, Equity & Diversity advocates for safe spaces while embracing difference.

 
Hamden Hall earned the official designation, No Place for Hate, in 2020 by the Anti-Defamation League. Since that time, we continue to stand up for equity, inclusion, and acceptance as exhibited by our school-wide pledge and banner.
 
 
The inaugural Walk for Unity took place on October 16, 2022, and is an annual event for the school.



Hamden Hall is proud to be among the first 63 schools across the nation to pilot the College Board's AP African American Studies course. The pilot program launched during the 2022-2023 school year under the leadership of Dr. Hill, who was instrumental in developing course content as a member of the College Board's Course Development Committee. It is now an annual course offering.
