A Message from
Our Head of School
Hello and welcome to MPPS. Not only am I the Head of School, but I also have the unique privilege of being both an MPPS parent and an MPPS educator. I get to see and experience firsthand the results of what our dedication to our students yeilds. Our students are passionate, dedicated, and daring. We endeavor to develop inquiring, knowledgable, and caring young adults that are motivated to succeed. Our students excel because of the opportunities they are afforded here at MPPS and because of the guidance provided by our community of educators and professionals. We set high standards and our students rise to them.
Our independent school is small by design so that we can offer our students an exceptional academic program that is designed to meet their needs as scholars, future leaders, and as students with passions as unique as they are. Many students struggle to balance schooling and the time required for non academic pursuits, they face very demanding schedules, and we believe that young talent should not have to choose between a focus on what they love or a focus on scholarship. Rather, we believe that personal interests and scholarship equally fulfill the needs of our students' development intellectually, socially, and personally.
Just as important as an engaging curriculum, we believe in the importance of developing students who are considerate and who value personal growth. Beyond extracurricular activities, MPPS provides opportunities for our students to learn the value of being in service to others, the foundation of social responsibility, respect, and global citizenship that is fostered in our students through our service learning program. We care about who our students are today and who they will be tomorrow. At MPPS we live our mission everyday.
