Marymount School is an independent, Catholic day school in NYC that seeks to educate young women who continue to question, risk, and grow—young women who care, serve, and lead—young women prepared to challenge, shape, and change the world.
Mission & Vision

Culture of Belonging
To ensure we fulfill the RSHM mission “that all may have life, and have it to the full,” Marymount is committed to building a culture of inclusion and belonging so that all members of our community feel seen, supported, and valued. Through our curriculum, community engagement programs, and professional development opportunities, Marymount strives to amplify diverse voices, celebrate the rich diversity of our community, and build cultural competence.
Global Community
Marymount New York is part of the Global Network of RSHM schools – 19 schools in 8 countries that share common values and vision. This international network offers abundant opportunities for curricular collaboration, study tours, exchange programs, and more.
Campus
Composed of three adjoining landmark mansions at 84th Street and Fifth Avenue, our flagship campus offers a beautiful yet cozy home away from home for our younger students in Nursery-Class V. Marymount’s state-of-the-art second home opened in September 2023 on East 97th Street and expands the academic, athletic, and artistic programming for Classes VI-XII. Two classrooms in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park, and other New York City sites create an extended campus for Marymount students.
