Where does knowledge meet maximum impact?
At Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon is an independent school serving over 1250 students from Preschool through Grade 12. Mount Vernon School is a community where curiosity is cultivated, multiple perspectives are valued, and prototypes are built and iterated until mastery is achieved. Learning is amplified through real-world problem-solving, creating limitless possibilities for meaningful impact.

Mission

We are a school of inquiry, innovation, and impact. Grounded in Christian values, we prepare all students to be college ready, globally competitive, and engaged citizen leaders.

We are designing a better world...right now.

Approach

We design relevant, transformational curricular and learning competencies from Preschool through Upper School, explored through an inquiry-based approach and assessed on levels of proficiency.ย 

Commitment

We commit to creating and sustaining a school culture where all members feel valued and safe, sharing their authentic selves to design a better worldโ€ฆtogether.

A PURPOSEFUL JOURNEY

The journey for all students to become college ready, globally competitive, and engaged citizen leaders begins in Preschool and continues through Grade 12. Along the journey, we build foundational literacies, skills, attributes, and meaningful relationships.ย 

Mount Vernon Mantras

At Mount Vernon, our Mantras reflect the conditioning and fuel required for sustained growth, performance, and accountability over time. They are the behaviors that thrive in this culture. Remaining committed to utilizing these Mantras allows us to design an incredible future together.

Today at Upper Campus Chapel, we were honored to welcome Rabbi Brad Levenberg from Temple Sinai, who shared a beautiful message of peace, inclusion, and unity as we approach Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. As we reflect on new beginnings and the power of community, we are reminded of the importance of embracing and celebrating our diverse traditions and perspectives. Shana Tova to all who are observing! #RoshHashanah #CommunityOfPeace #Inclusion #JourneyOfPurpose
