Linton Hall School

Linton Hall School is an excellent school that helps children excel academically and socially. The school is so much more than just a school--it has a strong community base where the older children look after the younger children, the teachers truly care about the students, and the parents all help at the school. Children that leave LHS have an excellent education and more often than not are above level and go on to graduate high school at the top of their class. I should know, I have already had one child leave and be VERY successful in high school.

I also have a child in 5th grade in the 2011/2012 school year. My child has loved all of her teachers at this school but has particularly enjoyed her 5th grade teacher. She has an energy and enthusiasm for teaching that has brought my very serious child out of his shell. She is more than competent as a teacher. I look forward to the day when my other children get her as their teacher.

As a long-time Linton Hall parent, I find the previous post disparaging the 5th grade teacher insulting and ignorant. The teacher - indeed, all the teachers - are committed to nurturing the students' educational, moral and spiritual needs. Without exception, the staff and faculty at Linton Hall are capable, confident and fully engaged. We started at LHS in Pre-K and will be there through 8th grade graduation. We have alternatives for a private education, Linton Hall is the only choice we ever seriously considered and have never doubted or regretted that decision. For people who want to find fault without making an effort to improve the situation, I say to you the door swings two ways - in and out.

Do not send your child to the 5th grade at Linton Hall School. Teacher is incompetent and is unable to teach basic math.

I have 2 children that have been at this school for 6 years. The academics are excellent and they receive spanish, art, music and an ecology program as part of the standard curriculum at a time when most schools are cutting these programs. There is also a sense of community and charity that I have never seen at other schools that I think is irreplaceable. I know of 3 families that have sent their children to LHS after spending time with my children and commenting on their manners and vocabulary... I feel that is the highest compliment and I am proud that my family is a part of this school!

I have 3 children at Linton Hall School and have been very impressed with the academic environment. My children are thriving and testing above grade level. The teachers are qualified and also care about enriching their students' lives. There is not another private school in the immediate area that has as much to offer as Linton Hall School.

We had two children that went to Linton Hall. Some of the teachers were very dynamic and concerned about the children. The administration was another issue and we left with the impression that the principle was entirely in over her head. Under the previous administration there was a waiting list and no one wanted to leave the school, but under the current administration, several families left for other private or public schools.

Excellent school. We are not Catholic and our children are having a great experience. The Sisters are wonderful- true missionaries.
