About the Provider
At Lindeneau, we believe that every child has the ability to learn and be successful. This belief is the driving force that empowers our students and motivates our teachers to achieve the common goal of academic excellence. We recognize that every student who attends Lindeneau is a unique person and we celebrate their wonderful attributes as they contribute positively to our school. All of our students learn from one another and use these experiences as building blocks for future growth and development.
All of our highly qualified teachers take great pride in providing challenging and interesting lessons making each day an exciting adventure in learning! It is through their individual creativity and tremendous work ethic that they design lessons that motivate and engage students on a daily basis. We know when students are excited about learning that great things happen! With high expectations for all, classroom, grade level and school goals are implemented through data collection and analysis in language arts and math. Teachers also use their assessment data to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of individual students. By developing a love of learning early in a child’s education, students are more successful and better prepared for all life’schallenges!
In addition to academic excellence, Lindeneau School promotes the social growth of every student. We believe in educating the whole child and this is done through creating a warm,caring and safe school environment supported through Character Education programs. Our school implements the Positive Behavior Support in School program (P.B.S.I.S). This initiative is school wide and supports positive behavior through our school theme which is be “Respectful, Responsible and Successful.” Tiger tickets are given out to students by all school staff members (teachers, custodians, para-professionals,administrators) that catch students making “Good Choices”. The students use their tickets to enter into prize raffles that are held during lunch periods. When students feel supported and positive about themselves, good things happen!
