With an enrollment of over 600 students, 269 in the Lower School, The Lexington School is an educational leader in Kentucky. In the past decade, it has grown in size, impact, and reputation. Known for its strong academics, focus on character, and warm, caring community, the mission of the school is to maximize the potential of all its students ages two years old through 8th grade. The campus includes 140,000 sf of academic buildings with distinct areas for Preschool, Lower School, Middle School, and The Learning Center, play spaces for each division, athletic fields, 2 gyms, and a large dining space serving locally sourced foods. The recently completed ONE School Project created innovative learning and play spaces for every age child, including a large academic center, meeting and project rooms, and an innovation lab. The center of The Lexington School has always been its rigorous academic program and focus on values. The School’s reputation for excellence extends to independent, public, and parochial schools locally and nationally through graduates who attend boarding schools. The Best Private Schools, an independent online resource providing school rankings and recommendations, ranked TLS #2 among all schools nationally, an honor the School did not seek but of which they are understandably proud. With the recent ONE School Project additions and renovations, curricular innovation and active learning are at the forefront of a Lexington School education. Just published, the the2020 Strategic Vision and Plan outlines areas of focus and detailed action plans that will move the school forward with strength and purpose. The Lexington School provides an education of the highest quality in a structured, nurturing community. We instill integrity, a joyful pursuit of learning, and a strong work ethic. In our supportive environment where children are known, they develop courage. Courageous children take risks, and we embrace the growth that emerges from their success and failure. We succeed when our graduates crave achievement and live with purpose beyond themselves.
