Best Private School If You Want Your Kid to Get an Athletic Scholarship

Landon School

Athletic prowess is just one reason that Landon students land college sports scholarships—at least eight to Division I schools this year alone.
Landon’s Acting Athletic Director Mike Derwinski says college coaches “want our athletes not because they will lead them to a national championship. They call us because our boys are well-prepared for college life.”

Jim Colgain, president of the Landon Fathers Club, adds that college coaches know that a Landon student will be “an excellent teammate and gentleman.”

Tuition at the school costs $29,063 to $30,123.
