[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Landon is not St. Albans and doesn’t seek to be. If people want their sons to go to a school like St. Albans, they should go to St. Albans instead of trying to make Landon like St. Albans. Landon occupies a unique and necessary niche - it is not religiously affiliated, it is single sex, and it balances academics with athletics - which STA used to do too but now the kids do hours and hours of homework every night and the school basically can’t win a game in any sport. Not every school is for every child - they are all different and they don’t need to try to be the same. [/quote]

This. Why do we need another St. Albans or Sidwell Friends? Let Landon be Landon but aim for the best version it can be. More important than flaunting ivy acceptances, is transforming young kids into exceptional adults who are kind, honest and have good character. This is more important than ever these days. I don’t know any school that is even moderately successful in this regard [/quote]
