Welcome from Head of School, Eric Mayer

Lansdowne Friends School transforms the lives of children who attend. I'm delighted that you are exploring our website, as this is an extraordinary place. 

We are a neighborhood school, rooted in a deep connection to the Borough of Lansdowne and the city of Philadelphia. We emphasize a number of exciting educational and community practices, captured in the LFS Difference. 

And we are rooted in love, recognizing that children’s academic and emotional growth depends on the transformative power of kindness and compassion.  We welcome you to campus anytime to witness our ongoing experiment in learning, stretching, and belonging.
