Landon School is a private, nonsectarian, college preparatory school for boys in grades 3–12, with an enrollment of approximately 680 students, in Bethesda, Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C. ==Background== Paul Landon Banfield and his wife, Mary Lee, founded Landon School in 1929. The school’s first location was a former residence in the Sheridan-Kalorama neighborhood of Washington, D.C., now home to the Embassy of Estonia. Banfield moved Landon to its present campus in Bethesda in 1935. The farmhouse, stables, and barn from the previous use of the Bethesda property still stand on the campus and are used today. At the start of each school year, every student and faculty member signs Landon’s Code of Character as a pledge to uphold the values of respect and honor that are central to the school’s Civility and Honor Codes. These same values are present in the school’s motto, "Virtute et non vi" — which means "By virtue, not by force." The Landon School's headmasters have been: * Paul Landon Banfield: 1929–1970 * Hugh Riddleberger: 1970–1981 * Malcolm Coates: 1981–1989 * Damon F. Bradley: 1990–2004 * David M. Armstrong: 2004–2015 * Jim Neill: 2015–present 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Landon School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
