My now 8-year-old daughter absolutely loooooves going to school every day and has since 2021. The faculty and leadership provided such a supportive and wonderful atmosphere for all the kids. My daughter has been learning Spanish since kindergarten and Chinese since first grade. I am sooooo very grateful to have such a great school available for my daughter.

In my attitude, the Lyndon Academy is the best school. My daughter is happy to be a part of the community of Lyndon Academy. My daughter previously attended one of the best schools in our country, comparing Lyndon Academy and our previous school, I can honestly say that Lyndon Academy is the best school. After starting her studies at Lindon Academy, my daughter happily started going to school, she began actively attending sports clubs. Returning home in the summer, she really looks forward to starting school. For me, this is the best indicator that the school is helping my daughter become better.

We started at Lyndon Academy in 2024, and from our first meeting, we were really impressed. The tour made us feel comfortable right away, and they were excellent at answering all of our questions. Since our child started in their pre-k program, we've seen such a dramatic improvement they're learning so much more and at a faster pace than before. It's been incredible to see the progress in just a few weeks. We're also excited about the opportunities for growth all the way through to high school graduation. Lyndon has done a great job providing ways for us to get involved and learn more about the school. We're also looking forward to our child joining their developing sports programs. Overall, we highly recommend Lyndon Academy!

My kid would not be the person she is. She has learned ethics, leadership, independence, resourcefulness, responsibility, determination, preservation, and most of all friendship. She had the opportunity to spread her wings and try clubs, sports, public speaking, languages, and dissection in science. All while being a kid!

My children are in their 8th and 9th year as students at Lyndon Academy. We were impressed with Lyndon from the start and were almost a little taken aback by how enthusiastically people were singing Lyndon's praises. We thought it was too good to be true. We soon found out that the accolades were well-earned. My son embraced the Lyndon structure from his first introductory day. My daughter started the year after. Both of them have thrived in the Lyndon environment. Beginning in Kindergarten, children have specialized teachers for each subject and become accustomed to switching classes. The small break of getting up and moving to another classroom is good for their energy and focus. The teachers educate about the subjects that are most meaningful to them and hence are able to exude sincere enthusiasm for what they are teaching. In doing this, the students are given the best chance for enjoying/absorbing the material for themselves. There are many other benefits of attending Lyndon Academy:The school emphasizes personal responsibility and organization which lays a foundation for lifelong success. Lyndon teaches a grade-level above the public school curriculum. The students always test very well though are not pressured to do so. The school has a variety of extra-curricular activities that the students can get involved with: drama, band, Model UN, journalism, sports (golf, basketball, softball, cross country), etc. Lyndon emphasizes community service and the benefits of volunteer work. The students from the first graduating class (2018) were recognized as academically exceptional and were accepted too many colleges. I believe that the education and preparatory skills that Lyndon offers will help groom students for a bright future. We have been very happy with the faculty and staff as well as the educational challenge that Lyndon has provided. We recommend this school highly and are thankful for the opportunity to attend such a quality institution.

We get a great deal of value out of this small investment.
