Our campus is an experience you need to see in person. Our doors are open. Come by and see what we are up to.
Almost sixty years ago, a few passionate families envisioned an education that had yet to exist in Dayton. The Miami Valley School was born out of the desire to provide experiential learning in an intimate environment where the educational focus was directed to the individual needs of the student. That vision became the MVS culture and personality.
When you walk onto the MVS campus today, you’ll experience our joyful personality. You’ll see that our culture celebrates everyone for what they bring to the table. We believe in scholarship. Our accomplished teachers take their job seriously and have high expectations of their students. We have a diverse student body – we embrace and respect different heritages and learn from one another. And transformation happens. In our safe environment, students learn from their mistakes and become empowered to take chances again and again.
Come visit and have your child spend the day in class. There is no better way to experience MVS than through our students’ and teachers’ stories. We welcome you to the MVS admission process and we will guide you every step of the way with personal attention. We’ll unfold the many reasons why this is the best educational opportunity for your child.
Welcome! We look forward to starting the conversation.

In this interactive evening program, you’ll learn about how The Miami Valley School’s signature Immersion Method aligns with a 21st-century model of academic excellence and sets students up for success beyond school. MVS teachers will be on hand to share their learning philosophies and provide a sneak peek into their classrooms for short “master classes.”
The Immersion Method, and its emphasis on learning through real-world experience, has defined excellence in education at MVS for 59 years. This approach challenges students to explore, connect, share, and reflect as key elements of the learning process while empowering them to dive deeply into their passions. Learn more at “Academic Excellence at MVS” on Thursday, November 16, at 6:30 p.m.
