Welcome to Landon, a national leader in boys’ college preparatory education.
Since 1929, Landon School has prepared generations of boys to become accomplished, responsible, and caring men. Our program develops boys in Grades 3–12 as scholars and servant-leaders, as thinkers and creators, as men of character and commitment who are ready for college and life beyond.
