We moved near Linton 2 years ago and enrolled our children. We have been pleased with the quality of the teachers and the friendly atmosphere of the school as a whole. We've participated in the free family nights this year, as well as the extracurriculars available before and after school, and our kids have so much fun. It's a great neighborhood school!
