Bert M. Lynn Middle School

I am extremely pleased with my son's school, Bert Lynn Middle School. The curriculum is challenging and very well planned. The teachers are strict enough but compassionate to students' needs. The office staff is wonderful and very willing to help in situations that may arise. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking for an academically achieving school along with a warm environment.

My daughter is in 6th grade this year at Lynn Middle school and really likes it. The teachers are great and I really like how they have an intervention program after school for the students that are struggling a little. Office staff very nice.

The parent involvement is one of the many aspects of the outstanding school. Bert Lynn Middle School has a dedicated staff who act in the best interest of the students at every level. Outstanding programs include an exceptional mathematics department and music program. We are also aware of the support programs available for children.

Dedicated and caring teachers like Mr. Childers, Ms. Blair, Ms. Parke and mostly Mrs. Thomas really make a difference for students who do not necessarily fit into the 'box' of middle school rigors. They assess the student's individuality; making adjustments in learning style vs. teaching style and possess a genuine interest in individual student success at a very 'interesting' time in their development. Personally, I am not impressed with the current principal, but thankfully, there are several outstanding teachers at many grade levels who make this a good choice for students living in the South Bay. The PTSA is very active, as are the majority of parents in this West area of Torrance; at the elementary schools, middle schools and high schools. Your involvement as a parent is expected, and almost is used as a measure of your student's success (or failure). Not sure I agree totally with that philosophy.

Academic programs at Bert Lynn Middle School are outstanding. Mathematic pacing is challenging, but many of the teachers provide additional assistance after school.

The teachers are highly skilled and work hard to bring out the best in each child. The principal is kind and knows each child by name. She is a great example of a leader and I will miss seeing her everyday as my daughter graduates this year.
