Michelle L. Robinson, President of Mount Notre Dame
A distinguished leader in both education and the community, Michelle L. Robinson stepped into the role beginning July 1, 2024.
Robinson has over twenty years of experience in the private school sector with over fifteen years spent in senior administration leadership roles. She comes to MND from Carrollwood Day School in Tampa, FL which is an International Baccalaureate World School with a focus on cross-cultural competency as evident by its nearly 50% diverse student body.
To prepare herself for a president role, Robinson has spent the past four years participating in the Florida Council of Independent Schools Prospective Head of School Institute. The program explored and delved into the complexities inherent in a president position and was facilitated by multiple Heads of School who shared their first-hand experiences. In January 2024, she delivered a presentation at the CASE-National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) Conference on ‘Meaningful Board Engagement’ and was published in the summer edition of the NAIS Independent School magazine.
Robinson holds a Master of Education from Xavier University and a Bachelor of Science from Ashland University. She has been actively involved in the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), Council for Advancement and Support Education, the National Association of Independent Schools, and Florida Council of Independent Schools. She also volunteers as a community member on the leadership team for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Students of the Year and was past chair in 2022.
Robinson’s presidency begins at a pivotal time, as the school is moving into its 165th year. Her leadership and vision for the future promise to lead the school into a bold new chapter of success and innovation, while also ensuring the school’s growth and maintaining its legacy of success.
Michelle and her husband Michael have a son, Tyler, and a spunky Boston Terrier, Sadie.
