Maryvale's mission is to provide an exceptional education that responds to change and prepares young women for life. 

Maryvale focuses on individualized education with an 8:1 student-to-teacher ratio. We recognize that each student, in both the Middle School and Upper School, is different and develops at her own pace. Our faculty and staff are trained to recognize when a girl may need more support or more rigor. Beginning in the sixth grade, every girl receives individualized attention tailored specifically to her academic, spiritual, and personal journey. 

During her time at Maryvale, each student has a chance to grow as a leader through the Patricia J. Mitchell '65 Leadership Institute. The Mitchell Leadership Institute provides all students with the academic training, real-life experiences, and immense opportunity to develop leadership skills that will catapult them ahead in college, career, and life. 

One hundred percent of all graduates proceed to college. Some stay in Maryland or the east coast while others go across the country or abroad! Maryvale grads excel as doctors, entrepreneurs, investment bankers, judges, engineers, journalists, government leaders, professors, and in many other professions.
