We are Mount Vernon

At Mount Vernon, students have big ideas. When teachers truly understand each individual’s curiosities and passions, the possibilities are limitless. As a co-educational day school serving more than 1,200 students from Preschool through Grade 12, Mount Vernon is a destination for students eager to design a better world.

We create conditions for learners to excel in college, career, and citizenship by following a proven formula for success. This includes a clear and compelling mission, cultural norms that encourage stepping outside of comfort zones, design principles and practices that guide teaching and learning, and six significant mindsets that result in an impactful educational experience.

A Journey of Purpose
Mount Vernon embarked on an eighteen-month, comprehensive visionary process to chart our future path. By giving voice to questions, wonders, and curiosities, we engaged our community and external experts in addressing two key areas:

Looking Back to Look Forward
Learning from the Future as it Emerges
Reflecting on our recent past helps inform our preferred future for the next decade. The Impact Ready Project’s bold vision aims to enhance the School’s brand identity and reputation as a leading, innovative independent school in Atlanta and nationwide.

Where Are We Going?
With an ambitious and bold vision, The Impact Ready Project places the learner at the center of the journey. By fostering agency to act on what is meaningful to oneself and consequential to others, we focus on four key targets:

Literacies, Skills, & Attributes
Relationships & Networks
Research & Innovation
Culture & Connection
Literacies, Skills, & Attributes
Discover Where Knowledge Searches for Maximum Impact

At Mount Vernon, knowledge goes beyond knowing that, knowing how, or knowing why. For us, knowledge is about doing and seeking maximum impact.

When “learners are placed in the front seat of their learning journey and supported to become drivers of it” (Education Reimagined), positive identity is nurtured, purpose emerges, and impact is realized.
