Teacher Appreciation Week
Of all the amazing gifts our students and parents gave us during #teacherappreciationweek -- breakfast! flowers! a self-care bar! in-school seated massage! even a car wash! -- by far the greatest was letting us know that we make a difference in their lives.
Spring (Play) Fever
The spring play is well underway, and we are incredibly impressed with the students’ progress throughout the production process!
Exceptional Iowas!
We received our IOWA testing results yesterday evening, and I am thrilled to share our statistics with you. This is the strongest testing performance our school has ever seen — and honestly, the strongest performance I have seen at any school since COVID.
Exciting News for Our Community
We are excited to announce that the Middle States Association (MSA) visiting committee has recommended Linder Academy for the highest level of accreditation: Full Accreditation!
