One powerful way Mount Vernon amplifies learning is thru design thinking. Like a partner of Stanford's d.School, MVPS opened the Center for Design Thinking in 2010, engaging students in real-world, people-centered solving problems. Mount Vernon also provides a number of other intriguing methods of students to experience the planet, such as a unique offering called Interim Term. Traveling through cultural arts trips, national college tours, mission trips, and taking part in internships, students broaden their learning experiences after dark classroom.

Impacting the broader Atlanta area, Mount Vernon students perform over 10,000 hours of community service each and every year. Additionally, opportunities about the arena abound with 90% of students doing a number of the School's 45 teams. Extending the mission of Atlanta private schools beyond the walls in the school, Mount Vernon's Institute for Innovation delivers Modern day learning and teaching to local and global communities. Through professional learning workshops, international exchange opportunities, and service and outreach, the Institute builds effective public-private partnerships that promote inquiry, innovation and impact.
