Campus Master Plan: Right Now

Landon has completed "Phase 0" of the Plan with a new entrance and is now in "Phase 1" to build a new Upper School and renovate other facilities on campus. 

Phase 1

US Approach

New Upper School Building 

To address the pressing need for additional and updated space, Landon is  building a new Upper School facility that better serves our mission and our ambitions for Landon’s oldest students.

Our Upper School will be moving into a brand new, state-of-the-art building in the fall of 2023. Our oldest students will enjoy inspiring spaces such as a central, skylit common area designed for presentations and lectures as well as studying and socializing together. Modern science and engineering labs will be arranged around a science forum that engages all in learning and innovation. It will represent the best of Landon – at once respectful of the past and receptive to the future.

Campus Welcome Center and Infrastructure Improvements

We plan a number of important infrastructure improvements that will enhance the safety and security of the entire Landon community, improve the student and visitor experience, and beautify the campus. First, we moved roadways to the perimeter of the campus, allowing for the creation of an academic quad and pedestrian-friendly core of the campus – a continuous, vehicle-free area where the boys spend most of their academic day. In addition, a new welcome center closer to Wilson Lane now guides visitors and facilitates vehicle traffic. At the front entrance, we have installed new fencing and landscaping to improve the aesthetic view from inside and outside campus and to provide a higher level of security.

ANDREWS HOUSE MOVE!

 

 


 

Campus Master Plan: The Future

Capital Projects

Landon will raise $30 million to enhance our facilities.

The Campus Master Plan envisions the creation of a new Upper School building, which will maintain a central location on the current site of the Andrews House, establishing a beacon of learning on the highest point of our 75 acres. With this new Upper School, the Middle School will then move into a renovated and expanded Banfield Academic Center (the current Upper School building), and the Lower School will move into the current Middle School, resulting in an academic quad that supports a cohesive Landon experience for all of our students.
