Academics

The Lyndon Academy AdvancED accredited educational program provides a non-sectarian college preparatory curriculum based upon nationally recognized models demonstrated by New York and Massachusetts, states which routinely send a higher percentage of graduates on to college. The core academic standards in the lower school and middle school for math, English language arts and social studies are backed by the long standing curricula of New York, while the sciences are backed by Massachusetts standards. Foreign language standards, also a part of the core academics, are supported by Spain and China. Upper school courses are advanced College Board based college preparatory classes, and there are AP classes as well as college course opportunities available. Arts, athletics, technology, and an abundance of electives are available in addition to the multi-lingual core curricula.[citation needed]
