My son is in 8th and had attended Old Mill for 6th & 7th. I have not heard of any problems regarding bullying. But, I do agree that there should be a website that parents can access to check homework assignments for each class, each evening. My son has a tendancy to say he doens't have homework.

It has affected his grades tremendously and other than email's after the fact, i have no control over the situation. I do agree that the teachers are very good at keeping in touch with the parents, when the parents initiate. At Old Mill, they have a homework hotline and website to check what homework has been assigned each and every day. Other than that, I think they have done a great job! Keep up the good work.

I never knew this page was here, and on reading the reviews I would be concerned about sending my child to Lindale, but, I feel the reviews that are less than favorable are old (several years ago) and seem to only be about bullying. There is a wonderful principal there now and he is doing a great job.
... Read more My third child in now in 8th grade, and I have a 9th grader that has just entered the IB program. I am involved in the school and I do not think the concerns of the parents from 2004 about bullying apply any more. Now, there are some kids who just seem to attract bully's for whatever reason and it will not make a difference where they go to school, but I feel bullying is dealt with appropriately at Lindale. The teachers are wonderful. My son was in AVID, great program! Read less

my son started last year and was bullied all the time. The harassment also happens in the private school sector as well, its just a different level of bullying. The school did take care of several of the more serious incidents, but I think they let it go longer than needed especially when its with

The only thing I would like to see in the AACO public school system is the ability to see dynamically the grades online and the projects, classwork, and homework. As a parent I take an active role in my child's education. He is now in eighth grade and is liking the school much better this year. Read less

Every school has its challenges; however, I would like to comment on a positive event happening at Lindale. To encourage every student to try their hardest on the MSA test, teachers developed an incentive called Lindale Summer Fun Day! Every student who scored proficient or advanced on both the math

The event will feature a moon bounce activity, many carnival games, a DJ, great door prizes such as certificates, books, and CDs, as well as a fun bubble blowing contest and Tug-O-War with a baby pool in the middle! The teachers have worked extremely hard to make this event a success and more importantly to make this event free to all qualifiers. We hope events such as Lindale Summer Fun Day will change the opinions of community members and parents who often overlook the positive interventions developed to improve our school. Read less

This school is diffintely one of the worst in AAC! if you are new to the Linthicum area I would strongly advise sending your child to a private school. The bullies are never disciplined and they get away with everything. I moved from Balt city to AAC. Thinking I was giving my children a safer enviroment.
