THE PRE-SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
The MdO pre-school department is a nurturing community for Beginners through Prep students. Our
atmosphere is characterized by comfort, tradition, support, intelligence, and humor. From the homerooms
to the playgrounds to the computer labs, a shared sense of the joy and fun of childhood prevails.
THE ELEMENTARY DEPARTMENT
As one teacher describes it, the MdO Elementary department is like a big family on a mission of learning.
The elementary department is a safe haven for graders to grow and learn. It is a place populated by
teachers who thrive on the energy that fifth and sixth graders generate.
THE HIGH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
There is no typical student at MdO. Students can be who they are and become who they were meant to be.
The High School department gives a lot of opportunities for exploration - from journeying into intellectual
outer limits to testing the waters of team sports to leaping into the dramatic unknown of the stage. It is a
place where everyone takes risks because it is safe enough to do so.
Our High School department emphasizes self-discipline, problem-solving, and daily engagement with the
task of learning. We encourage students to pursue their interests with passion and to meet their
obligations with enthusiasm. We value a diversity of opinion, talent, and backgrounds. But we are united in
our appreciation of hard work, individual achievement, and intellectual ambition.
