Linwood A+ Elementary has a long history of being
a successful school community. Linwood A+ began as an
arts-infused magnet school in the fall of 1995. The A+ model revolves
around the theory that educating through arts infusion is a highly
effective way to help students find academic success. Since our
inception, student learning has been supported  | | A happy student on the first day of school! |
through music, drama,
dance, and the visual arts. In 2002, Linwood A+ received a Creative
Ticket National School of Distinction Award from the John F. Kennedy
Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. Only 5 schools are
recognized each year across the United States for providing exceptional
learning through the arts, so we have much to be proud of!
The mission of Linwood A+ is to provide a quality, comprehensive,
arts-infused education. Our vision is that by infusing Arts into the
curriculum, we enhance the opportunities for academic success for all
students. Put another way, we try to utilize any means possible to
reach all children and to help them to learn to the best of their
abilities. Success for all students is our goal.
We would like for parents and students alike to know that they are very
important to us. The number one goal of the entire school staff is to
provide the best possible education for the students of Linwood in a
safe and secure environment. We work to ensure that all families are
involved in the school community.
In the 2007-2008 school year, our specific school goals include:
ensuring our struggling students succeed; providing additional
challenges  | | Our Peace Pole stands proudly in the 2nd grade garden in front of our school. |
and opportunities to extend knowledge for all students; and
working to improve our connections between the arts and reading,
writing and math. Please check out the rest of our website to see all that we are so proud of!
