Description
Mother Marie Joseph Butler founded Marymount School of New York in 1926 with this vision: “The aims of a Marymount education are manifold: to educate the heart and mind, and to provide for each student’s total growth–intellectually, spiritually, socially, and physically.”
Working with the iPad and the MacBook Air in a 1:1 environment and using the resources of four maker spaces, Marymount students know, as Seymour Papert advocated, “how to act when faced with situations for which they were not specifically prepared.”
Marymount School’s mission statement notes that, as a school, “we seek to educate young women who continue to question, risk, and grow.” As such, every student, every faculty member, and every administrator understands that effective and transformative teaching and learning requires that everyone be an active member of a vigorous learning community. The visionary leadership of Headmistress Concepcion Alvar sets a positive tone for the community as well as a high level of expectation for engagement throughout the School. Students and faculty creatively use innovative and traditional technologies as learning tools that thoughtfully connect learning objectives with learning outcomes.
