Testimonials

I would tell parents considering LGS that they would have a hard time finding a school that has the whole package — other schools use similar methods, but they don't have everything LGS does."

My son has thrived at Linden Grove School. He now has real friends to socialize with. He has also grown so much academically that I am surprised every year at how much gain he is making. My son is happy going to school and is proud of his accomplishments."

LGS changed our world for the better; our son is happier which makes for a happier family over all. He has only been at LGS for four months and has shown so much growth — I dare say “maturity”— in regard to behavior. His handwriting has significantly improved and his excitement for school in general has blossomed. We feel extraordinarily blessed to have found our way to LGS!"

Linden Grove School is a place where all students of every level are motivated to succeed in a loving and caring manner. They individualize the curriculum to meet the needs of each and every student and make those students feel not only accepted, but VALUED as well. A parent couldn’t ask for more than that."

My son's math and reading skills have increased dramatically, especially in his first year at Linden Grove School. The social skills that are taught at school also show outside of school. He loves school and his teachers so much that he is disappointed if we tell him he is too sick to go to school when he has a cold."

Linden Grove School staff are a blessing to me as a parent. They are knowledgeable about the boys, and very positive about their growth and overall development. They accept the boys for who they are and push them to keep gaining. I can’t imagine my sons in any other program or school."

Finally - a school that meets my son's needs! Small and personal - they get to know each child individually. My son is finally not dreading going to school. He's made friends and is able to meet daily expectations."

The public school was unable to meet my son’s academic or social needs. Linden Grove School offered the individualized education that has made school a positive for him. The small class sizes, enrichment programs, trained and caring teachers and the sense of community found at Linden Grove School are unmatched in our region."

Our son’s needs were never addressed previous to coming to LGS. We now feel like we know exactly what is going on with our son and what changes in his routine need to happen to match his needs. We feel much more connected to the Linden Grove School Community.

We love LGS because they make our son feel happy. For once he loves school and is thriving socially, mentally, and emotionally."

I thank God for this school every day! I have never dealt with such a kind, compassionate, and POSITIVE staff. The teachers, therapists, and administrative personnel are truly dedicated to their profession, and I see it among their interactions with the kids every day. My son said this morning, "Yay! I get to go to school!" Never in a million years would I have ever dreamed of those words coming out of his mouth."

Our daughter loves school! She is learning both academically and emotionally, and she is meeting IEP Goals!!"

The entire staff at LGS truly cares about unlocking the inner potential of every student. Staff members are involved in each student's education beyond their normal "teacher" roles, which is very rare and very special."

We chose Linden Grove School for many reasons: the expertise of the administration, teaches and staff; the fact that speech, occupational, music and art therapies were offered as part of the program; and most of all the small class sizes. We knew that with low class numbers, our son would get more of the attention that he needed and deserved!"

This is our son's second year at LGS and he actually LOVES going to school. Due to the amazing direction of faculty and staff our son has grown from a quiet, introverted child to a brilliant, talkative wonderful young man."

Linden Grove School will work with your child through good and bad times. The staff will challenge your child academically and develop his social skills and good citizenship. Linden Grove School feels like a family that really loves and cares for your child."

Because of LGS’s safe atmosphere and sincere care of teachers, we are relieved when my son is at school. More verbal conversation about school and his friends is a big joy."

I’ll never forget the first time I picked our son up at LGS after school and he was finally excited about school. He said, “Mom, I finally found other kids like me and the teachers make learning fun!” I was in tears.

 "

I absolutely recommend Linden Grove School to any parent with a special needs child. The small class sizes and amazing teachers and staff make all the difference."
