All of our schools
, from elementary to high school, scoredin the top 10 rankings for the highest test scores in the state.

•
Lindbergh School District
was last year’s National Districtof Character, representing the entire country. At Lindbergh Schools, we look at the total child. Great testscores are important, but so are fine arts, athletics, involvementand character. Our programs address all these areas of develop-ment and more, to ensure that students have a well-roundededucation. We’re also putting on our construction hats as we continue togrow. Over the next three years, we will continue rebuilding thedated facilities in our district, thanks to patron support for theProp R 2006 and 2008 bond issues. We pledge to you, our neigh-bors, to stretch our dollars to provide a school district that has notonly high achievement, but also modern, state-of-the-art facilities.Lindbergh Schools has been delivering outstanding educationto students since 1949, and even in times of recession andchange, you can rely on us to always strive to meet our mission.Former students are now parents of new students, and the cyclecontinues.
