Hello and welcome to Linwood School! My name is Leslie Howard, and I am so excited to begin my first year as principal here. It is truly an honour to be part of such a caring and vibrant school community.

At Linwood School, our goal is to help every student discover the very best version of themselves. We know that each child learns in their own way, so we offer academics that are differentiated to meet a variety of needs. Alongside this, we encourage creativity, collaboration, and exploration because learning is not just about what happens in the classroom, but about building confidence, curiosity, and a love for discovery.

The safety and well-being of our students is always our top priority. We are committed to creating an environment where both physical and mental health are cared for, so that every child feels safe, supported, and ready to learn.

We also recognize the important role that parents, guardians, and families play in a child's learning journey. When families and schools work together, students thrive. That's why we welcome your involvement and encourage open communication at every step. Mutual respect, inclusivity, and strong partnerships are at the heart of our approach.

Linwood School truly feels like a family. We are so happy to have you with us and look forward to the year ahead filled with learning, growth, and connection. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please know you are always welcome to contact me at the school. I look forward to hearing from you.

Warmly,

Mrs. Leslie Howard
Principal
