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. The curriculum of Mount Vernon is heavily influenced by the principles of Design Thinking and accomplished by the concepts of Project Based Learning. By focusing on solving people-centered problems, Mount Vernon's students are gaining real-world skills today. By putting the user first and starting with empathy, Mount Vernon students are acquiring a deeper and richer understanding of the world around them. By working with companies and non-profits such as Delta, Porsche, Chick-fil-a, Magic Wheelchair Project, City of Sandy Springs, and the Center for Civil and Human Rights, Mount Vernon Students are getting out of the classroom and making real change. Leaning into the future, we see three essential questions guiding our future work:
How might we make school more reflective of real life?
How might we empower all learners to be seekers and explorers?
How might we inspire one another, and the larger world, through the work we undertake together?
Over the past 15 years, the school has transformed to become a leader in innovation as evidenced by:
-The emergence of brand identity in Atlanta, throughout the United States, and internationally;
- Global structure with its Atlanta-based flagship school, R&D Consultancy, Mount Vernon Ventures, and its global campus, MVSO.
- Renovation of flexible learning spaces designed to be student-centric;
-Growth in inquiries, applications, and enrollment and ranked a top 10 Atlanta-based independent school by Atlanta Business Chronicle
