Lyndon Institute

In 2017, we invited everyone to join Lyndon Institute as we celebrated the school’s sesquicentennial anniversary! 150 years after the school’s charter was signed in 1867, LI created a year’s worth of exciting events to honor the occasion. We wanted to share the pride and excitement we feel in the strong traditions, wonderful achievements, and shining future of our school. We were delighted that so many of you joined us for some or all of these activities to help us celebrate 150 years of reaching for the stars!

Throughout its history Lyndon Institute has served international students from many different countries.  Our mission is to prepare our non-native English speaking students to succeed in both academic and social settings using English. We are committed to meeting the academic and social needs of each student through an individualized, rigorous, comprehensive immersion program of English classes that focus on the student’s language proficiency. The Program centers on building the reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills while developing vocabulary and grammar. Our complete curriculum readies our non-native speakers for taking the TOEFL exam, for success in our academic curriculum and for the rigors of studying English at the University level.

Lyndon Institute encourages our international students to become involved and take leadership roles in groups and activities outside of the classroom to enhance their real-world language skills and enhance their experience in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.
