Digital Citizenship

Our digital age requires us to master the technology and also to understand the many implications for its use. At McLean, we take this aspect of education seriously.

Through a partnership with Common Sense Media, we support faculty, educate parents, and guide students in the safe, effective use of digital technology. The curriculum encourages students to think critically, behave safely and respectfully, maintain healthy digital relationships, and participate responsibly in the digital sphere. Digital citizenship includes awareness of digital bullying, cybersecurity, plagiarism, internet addiction, and more.

K-12 College Preparatory School Supporting Bright Students’ Individual Strengths and Challenges.

McLean School is an independent, co-educational, K-12 day school serving Maryland, Washington, and Virginia. McLean has for over sixty years been helping students realize their full potential by providing a comprehensive college preparatory program that emphasizes small classes and differentiated instruction. We embrace both traditional learners and ones with mild to moderate learning challenges – dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and challenges related to anxiety and executive functioning. Many of our students excel in some areas while benefiting from support in others.
