"If you want to decide how good a school is by reading test scores and percentages of free/reduced lunches, this is the website for you. And good luck to your kids. If you want to figure out if any particular school is right for your kid, get off your couch and tour the school. That's what I did. And I fell in love with Lyndale during my tour. The energy, the diversity, the community. All of it. While any school can provide the academic requirements, only schools like Lyndale truly teach our children about the world. And you can't put a "ranking" on that. Come see for yourself. Your kids will be glad you did!"

"We love Lyndale and feel it was the best possible choice we could make for our kids. Lyndale is hidden gem with an incredibly dedicated team of teacher and school leadership, plus a very involved parent community. Ranking the school based only on test scores is deeply unfair. Test scores are influenced by who is in the school. This is a very diverse school with a high number of English Language Learners, so clearly the test scores are not going to be as high as an all white school in the burbs. What matters more is how much progress kids in the school make every year - on that Lyndale is one of the strongest school in the district. My kids teachers have done a great job of teaching to students at all levels in the classroom, and everyone benefits from the very low student to teacher ratio!"
