About Wyndcroft

The Wyndcroft School is a distinguished coeducational private elementary and middle school located in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. We are dedicated to guiding our students from early education through eighth grade, equipping them with the necessary resources to build confidence, develop personal responsibility, achieve academic excellence, and create a strong foundation for achievement in the future. 

Our day school services are extended throughout the region to students residing in Berks, Chester, and Montgomery counties!

Our Mission

Mission
The Wyndcroft School provides a dynamic and foundational education developing the whole child. In a supportive community, the school fosters creativity, integrity, determination, a love of learning, and respect for others. Our students become confident self-advocating learners and leaders.
 
What We Do
Beginning in early education and preschool, students will begin to develop critical leadership skills. When they reach the Lower and Upper Schools, they emerge more confident, poised, and prepared to succeed. With our updated approach to a classic curriculum, Wyndcroft's faculty guides students through a rigorous academic program that cultivates a sense of gratitude and responsibility toward the larger world. 
 

We are committed to the success of our students, and we aim to prepare them to live and thrive in a global community. Our Wyndcroft graduates learn to create a strong foundation for achievement in the future. We are confident that once they graduate, our students will be prepared to succeed at the best secondary schools or high education they choose to pursue. 

The Wyndcroft School offers far more than a challenging academic curriculum and exceptional arts and athletics program for children. We are not only recognized as an academic leader in Pottstown, but many day schools for senior high education across Montgomery, Chester, and Berks counties have also acknowledged the distinct difference in confidence, skillset, and character development from our Wyndcroft graduates.

We understand how challenging finding commendable educational programs for your child may be, but the Wyndcroft School makes it easy and comfortable for you to trust that your child is in the best possible care from day one. 

A Motto to Live By: Non Sibi 

No matter their grade level, all Wyndcroft students live and learn the school’s motto: Non Sibi. Non Sibi translates as “not for one's self but for the good of others” and is the core of the Community Service projects that occur throughout the school year. Through these Non Sibi efforts, Wyndcroft students are taught the importance of giving back to their community and having respect for others.
