Lower School students also have after school education program opportunities. The Landon Enrichment & Afterschool Program (LEAP) is an opportunity to expand your student's learning experience beyond the school day in creative, dynamic and fun ways while supporting Landon's core values. Available to our Lower School students in the 2019-2020 school year, classes are offered in three eight-week sessions throughout the school year. You can learn more about LEAP here. 

We understand that every boy learns differently. If your son needs extra help, his teachers and a specialist from our Center for Teaching and Learning Resources will work with you and your son to develop a plan tailored to his strengths and needs so he can improve academically, complete his work on time, and develop a sense of confidence in his learning style.

Landon welcomes international students to our community in all three divisions (Lower, Middle and Upper).

Landon does currently offer Advanced Placement (AP) classes in the Upper School, but along with seven other D.C.-area independent schools, we will be moving beyond the AP course offerings by the 2022–23 school year at the latest. Moving beyond AP courses will allow our teachers to design and offer a wider variety of courses that are more rigorous and enriching, provide opportunities for our boys to have more authentic engagement with the world, and demonstrate respect for students’ intellectual curiosity and interests.
