Mount vernon presbyterian school Reviews

It takes a village to raise our children and we are so fortunate to have the MVPS family as an integral part of our village. MVPS cultivates a community of academic success but also empowers students to be engaged leaders who will leave an indelible mark on the world. Students are not molded to the culture of the school; rather, the school reflects the beautiful tapestry of talents and passions of its students. MVPS is cultivating a generation of young people who can lead with compassion and serve with humility. We are so proud to be a part of this extraordinary extended family.

Amazing school, one thing they could improve on is their food is for adoults.

This school is a great place. The education is phenomenal, the teachers are nice, and the students there are great. The expectations of this school is high, and this will change the student. My family has struggled to pay the tuition in the 3 years I have been here, but that is the only problem I have had with this school. I will definitely miss this school and everything about it as I move to a different school.

Our family is so glad we found Mount Vernon Presbyterian School. We were encouraged to consider MVPS while going through the outplacement process at my daughter s previous school. Once we toured, we decided to go ahead a transfer my son in the first grade we loved it so much. We really wanted a family school that both our children with unique learning styles could attend. MVPS has allowed my gregarious daughter to be excited about learning and share her excitement through outside of the box, multi-sensory learning. My son, who was more introverted at the time, was encourage to step outside of his box and learn important presentation and speaking skills. They both are thriving through amazing teachers and administrators who genuinely care about their learning and success. Both of our kids have the opportunity to explore subjects and interests near and dear to their hearts. They are continually stretched and encouraged to accomplish amazing learning goals they never would have set for themselves. The MVPS community is caring and loving. One of our main reasons for choosing MVPS was the feeling we got while touring the school and developing relationships with teachers and families. We felt like the teachers really love their careers and wanted to be at the school teaching. After four years being a part of the MVPS community those feelings are still validated. MVPS is just as concerned about developing good citizens and people as they are about developing college ready students.

This school is definently legit, a great school with a great staff and good education

My son has been at MVPS for the past seven years. While at times I admit there have been less-than-perfect moments, overall I have to say we are thrilled with the education that he is getting there. He is truly being prepared for college and more importantly for the 21st century. The teachers are excellent, the academics challenging and sports have been thoroughly rewarding. He is in 7th grade now with small class sizes and the relationships he has with his teachers are phenomenal- relationships that could not happen at a larger school. I would like to address a concern in a previous, negative review. My husband and I make a lot of sacrifices to be able to afford the tuition here. We are not huge financial contributors to the various other funds that the school requests above and beyond tuition. We do what we are able and give of our time and energy as we can. Never once in 7 years have we felt that our son has had any less an education than the families who are able to donate on a grander scale. Never. This school might not be for all students, but it is in our opinion one of the finest options available in Atlanta. And we are grateful that our son has the opportunity to attend and is being given an unbelievably strong foundation for his future.

I have been at this school for 2 years and really enjoy it. MVPS displays affection and love to all of their students. MVPS has a lot of great new programs that make me excel in all my classes. I love all the teachers and can't wait for the next year.

I cannot say enough good things about Mount Vernon. My older daughter attended another private school and found school boring and did not like it, and as such, I started looking at other schools. When I went to Mount Vernon's open house, I was so impressed with the school and literally felt blessed to have discovered it. My daughter started in 2nd grade, and it was as though her light switch flipped on. She became another kid and started absolutely loving school. She is now in 7th grade and actually still cries when school is over in the summer, because she loves it that much., and cannot wait for the new year to start. What strikes me about Mount Vernon is that it is all about the students and how they can be engaged in their learning and pushed to achieve. In our old school, it seemed to be all about the teachers and administration. And, the teachers at Mount Vernon are absolutely unbelievable. When I attended 7th grade curriculum night this year, I could not get over how impressive the teachers are. And it is like that every year! I also love how Mount Vernon is really leading the way in how to educate our children in the 21st century. I see correlations between what they are doing and what the universities I attended are doing, and that really excites me. Last but not least the school community itself is wonderful between the school leadership, teacher, parents and students. We love our school!! I should mention that my younger daughter started school there, so she has not known any other place and she loves it as well.
