Linder Academy is a K-8 private school in Old Town, and they are proud to announce the opening of a new high school campus in September 2025 (also located in Old Town). They also offer summer camps, academic programs and after-school support. Carpenter knows every student and parent by name and is deeply invested in their journey.
“We make confident students and enthusiastic lifelong learners, but we never forget that it’s more important to be a good person than a good student,” she says. “Our program focuses on developing the whole child and letting them discover how they want to engage with the world.”
The school has created the most developmentally appropriate education, serving students with disabilities, gifted students and 2E students, as well as typically developing children. It is academically rigorous while being inclusive.
