Nestled on a 90-acre campus, the Potomac School looks more like a college than a secondary school. Students can spend their years in kindergarten through twelfth grade at this private school.

Potomac is divided into four separate schools. The campus includes three libraries, three gyms, a performing arts center, tennis courts, squash courts and a football stadium. Potomac believes that nature is the best teacher and has developed a special environmental program for students. Potomac runs its own school bus system.
