I was an alumni at Linfield and now work in the Admissions Office. Obviously, I am a little biased since I think this place is wonderful. However, having seen both sides of the Linfield experience, I can honestly say that the lower star reviews are simply not accurate.

No place is perfect-- every school is filled with people and students who aren't flawed and make mistakes. HOWEVER, what I think Linfield does really well is try to pursue excellence in each area and to honor Christ with all decisions, whether it be disciplinary actions or development goals. If there is a problem, because of our small community and class sizes, administrators and teachers know about it early and are able to address it.

The faculty is really here for the students- they care on a level that far exceeds their job description. I had staff members mentor me through college, relationships, and even attend my wedding. If you're looking for a place where the people care about your kids, you need to check out Linfield.

Academics are a main focus on all campuses. At the Elementary School, it looks like LOTS of hands-on learning experiences and teachers who foster a love of learning in each student. At the Middle School, students have an amazing selection of classes to 'try'-- whether it be 3D printing Drones in STEAM class, learning about graphic design, or taking the lead in the school musical. At the High School, every student is able to meet with college counselors several times each year. They help each student choose their 'path' and find their right college fit, ensuring they are taking the right classes, and even holding their hands through the college admissions process.

Again, I love this place. Truly. Check it out for yourself!
