"The intown community and parent involvement is what makes Mary Lin superlative in so many ways. As many schools teach for tests, I have found Lin doing more to help my son become confident in his questioning as he examines the world."

"I attended Mary Lin from 2002-2007. The school has changed a lot since then, I am sure–some for the better, some for the worse. When I was a student there, bullying was extremely common and nothing was done about it–except maybe telling off the bullied child and giving them a hard time about it. The teachers were hit or miss. I had AMAZING teachers, and I had emotionally abusive teachers—some of which DO still teach at the school. I think my experience was not the norm, but I do know others who suffered similarly. Ideally, the school has improved."

"The school does well in general but the administration has poor leadership, communication, and advocacy skills. They are alienating the parent community."
