The Campaign for Landon
Landon has embarked on a $50 million capital campaign and a historic transformation of all of our learning spaces – all designed for boys to thrive.
Transform Learning Spaces
The plan includes the construction of a new Upper School building, as well as renovated Middle and Lower School spaces to establish a beacon of learning on the highest point of our 75 acres. This updated academic quad will support a cohesive Landon experience for all of our students.
