Ridgefield Academy/Landmark Preschool is a private co-ed day school educating students in Preschool - Grade 8. The RA/LP community celebrates childhood, pursues excellence, and cultivates kindness. An intellectually inspiring educational program fosters joyful learning and mutual respect. Each student is empowered to rise to their authentic self, preparing confident graduates who shape their future with ingenuity and integrity.
The comprehensive, challenging curriculum is enhanced by a wide variety of extracurricular activities in athletics, the arts, and community service. While the curriculum is grounded in fundamentals, various teaching methods are used throughout the school to engage students in the learning process and stimulate critical thinking. Learning at all levels encompasses rigor and innovation, structure and creativity, individual effort and teamwork. Most importantly, each student is viewed as an individual by dedicated teachers, who spark curiosity, inspire determined effort, and encourage students to speak their minds.
Above all else, RA/LP’s warm, supportive community is defined by close, caring relationships and a strong partnership between school and home. We believe each child’s success is a shared responsibility and encourage the active involvement of parents. Working together, we share aspirations, values, enthusiasm and pride. With the right balance of challenge, individual attention, and support, students emerge from their RA/LP academic journey with the knowledge and confidence to achieve success in high school and beyond.
