Our Mission
Landon School is committed to the ethical, intellectual, and personal development of boys. We challenge and inspire them to think deeply, individually, and broadly; to live with respect and honor; and to grow into healthy, well-rounded men of integrity and character who seek to make a positive difference in the world around them.
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. Our unwavering commitment to our faculty and their journey of learning allows them to grow and evolve as our boys do.

Teacher-Coach-Mentors
Boys work harder and achieve more when they respect and connect with their teachers. Landon faculty members are experts in boys’ education and know that boys will only fully open themselves to complex intellectual problems and inspirational ideas when they trust that their teachers genuinely care about their well-being and success. This is the basis of our entire educational approach—what we call teacher-coach-mentor—and the exceptional men and women at Landon treat this responsibility with the seriousness, commitment, and energy it deserves.

"I really appreciate how each boy's experience is maximized due to the connectivity of academics, athletics, and advisory. Faculty can best support each boy through their successes and hardships because we're better set up to know what they're experiencing on campus, at the rink, or at home. When the boys become closer with their peers though advisory or in the classroom, they're more likely to perform as a team on the ice, support each other away from the rink, and ultimately graduate from Landon as well-rounded young men." - alex parker, Upper School History teacher, head varsity hockey coach & student advisor
