I am currently a student at Linden High and I can truely say I love it. I moved here in the 4th grade and was immediatly accepted. I feel this school really helps people thrive and accomplish there goals in life. As a freshman we were taught how important education really is and how school can be fun.

Every school function is fun because of this fact and I have to disagree with this school not being a good place to take your children, i plan to raise mine here someday. Read less

I am currently a teacher at Linden High School. The students who fit in and are related to administration and board embers are treated well. Those who do not fit in are ignored, treated unfairly, and neglected as far as supplies, qualified teachers, and materials. This will be my last year teaching

I am a current student at Linden High.

He is really dedicated, even coming back from heart surgery to help us students, in this type of dedication, he's not alone.

The material covered is great, we always get to the chapter in the book that we are required to reach. But not all the students understand the material that was covered.
