McDonogh School is a private, coeducational, PK-12, college-preparatory school founded in Owings Mills, Maryland, United States in 1873. The school is named after John McDonogh, whose estate originally funded the school. The school now enrolls approximately 1,300 students, between 90 and 100 of whom participate in the Upper School's five-day boarding program. McDonogh employs approximately 177 full-time faculty members, more than 80% of whom hold advanced degrees and 20% of whom live on-campus.
McDonogh is regarded as one of the Baltimore region's most prestigious preparatory schools and has been called a "Power School" by Baltimore magazine. The school's students are frequently recruited by Ivy League and other top ranked colleges and universities. McDonogh's athletic programs have also seen widespread success, particularly in lacrosse, soccer, and wrestling, where the school's teams have been nationally ranked in recent years.
The school is a member of the Association of Independent Maryland Schools.
The school was established outside of Baltimore, Maryland in 1873 and funded by the estate of John McDonogh, a former Baltimore resident, who died in 1850.
