Overview

WELCOME TO THE MANDALA SCHOOL

We are a private school in Columbia, Maryland (relocating to Bowie) offering education from K to 9th grade. Our school was founded with a vision to provide students with an immersive, engaging, and individualized education that focuses on project-based learning in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM). Our curriculum includes a variety of core academics, enrichment, and life skills programs to ensure that our students receive a well-rounded education.

THE HOLISTIC APPROACH

At our school, we take a holistic approach to learning. Our environment allows students to thrive emotionally, socially, and academically. We believe that these three areas of development are interconnected and that each is essential to a student's overall success and well-being. We aim to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that promotes emotional intelligence, social responsibility, and academic excellence. Through our curriculum and personalized support, we aim to help each student reach their full potential and become confident, well-rounded individuals who are equipped to succeed in all areas of life.

Choosing the right school for your child is a crucial decision that will impact their future. Our dedicated teachers and mentors use a variety of instruction methods to cater to each student's individual needs and learning style. Our small class sizes ensure that every child receives the attention they need to thrive. Our curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, providing a solid foundation for future success.

We believe that education should be a collaborative effort between parents, students, and teachers, and we welcome parental involvement in all aspects of our school community. We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive space where every student can grow.

PASSION + COMMITMENT

We passionately believe that a diverse and inclusive learning environment is crucial to the success of our students and to creating a better world. We are committed to ensuring that all community members feel valued, respected, and supported. As a community partner, we strive to work collaboratively with other organizations and individuals who share our commitment to these values. Together, we can make a positive impact and create a more just society.

EMPOWERING STUDENTS FOR REAL SUCCESS

We believe in teaching our students that there are a wide variety of viable career paths available to them. From non-traditional careers and entrepreneurial ventures to more traditional jobs, there are countless options for making a living that can be pursued with passion and purpose. Our goal is to empower our students to explore all of these possibilities and find the path that's right for them, so that they can build a fulfilling and meaningful career doing what they love.

GOING BEYOND

Our vision goes beyond the walls of our school. We believe that education is about much more than just memorizing facts and passing tests - it's about preparing our students to be mindful, productive, and compassionate citizens of the world. That's why we focus on developing important life skills such as creative problem-solving, effective communication, and resiliency, which will serve our students well no matter where their journeys take them.

Ultimately, we hope to inspire our students to make a positive impact on the world around them, using their education to build a kinder, more just, and more sustainable future for all. We're excited to be a part of this journey with them, and we invite you to join us in this important work.
