About Us
Welcome to Linda Elementary School! Our staff is dedicated to the safety and education of all students. We work closely with parents, the community and each other to establish a caring partnership for the well being of our students. Our school environment is framed with three expectations; Be Safe - Be Responsible - Be Respectful. Our students develop a sense of belonging and competency in our school community. Our staff continually hones our skills through professional development and collaboration so that quality instruction is delivered.
