Experiential Learning
Our Centers for Learning create opportunities for meaningful teacher-student engagement.
Centers for Learning
Hero Treatment
Decades of academic research highlight the importance of both meaningful teacher-student engagement and highly experiential learning in the intellectual growth of young people. Accordingly, Morristown-Beard School has thoughtfully created three Centers for Learning to best engender the high-level development of several essential skills in your child.
The Center for Innovation & Design
Opened in 2019, the Center for Innovation & Design (CID) provides more than 8,000 square feet of flexible and innovative space where students design, build, and problem solve as they engage in multidisciplinary projects.
Dr. Owen Boynton, Director of The Center for Innovation & Design, explores the approach to learning and problem-solving that inspired the Center in the first place: Design Thinking.
See just how the CID space will be utilized to give new range and depth to work across disciplines at MBS, while also encouraging students to pursue passion projects of their own.
The Center for Academic Writing
The Center for Academic Writing helps your child embrace the writing process as well as write across the curriculum.
The Center for Teaching & Learning
The Center for Teaching & Learning guides students on learning processes from start to finish at MBS.
