OUR SCHOOL

Founded in 1867, Lyndon Institute is dedicated to providing a unique educational experience for our students that leads to a lifetime of learning and good citizenship. We are an independent and comprehensive high school for grades 9 – 12, offering a 150-course curriculum specializing in core and honors academics, fine and performing arts, and technical and career programs.

ADMISSIONS

Whether a student is getting hands-on experience in the classroom, in the workshop, on the playing fields, or in extracurricular activities, we believe that students learn "by doing" and we strive to offer multiple opportunities for our students to create, discover, make, build, and explore.

ACADEMICS

The teachers and administrators of Lyndon Institute believe that learning is a process which continues throughout life, and that formal education should provide a sound basis for later development. We recognize that student interest and motivation are vital to educational success and therefore, school should be both a challenging and enjoyable experience for all concerned.

ARTS

Lyndon Institute is one of the few high schools in Vermont that offers a complete range of Fine and Performing Arts courses. These include full course loads in each discipline: fine and graphic arts, theater, instrumental and vocal music, and dance. Students can choose from a range of classes in each of the disciplines ranging from introduction to art, photography, AP level art classes, and painting; acting, introduction and techniques in dance, jazz and lyrical ballet, dance history and improvisation/composition to dance company, plus concert and jazz band to chorus and select chorus.

CAMPUS LIFE

We welcome an average of 450 students from 20 countries, several U.S. states, and over 24 area towns and villages. We are grateful for the amazing diversity this combination of students creates and our community is grateful too. Many of our international students are befriended by area families and this offers a unique opportunity for our international students to experience life in America.

SUPPORT LI

By making a gift to LI, you are making a tremendous difference to lives of our students. It is through the generosity of donors we are able to offer special programs, fund international travel for needy students, provide new uniforms for our athletics programs, or fund advanced studies for our faculty and so much more!
