Here are some links to important information that every student will need to know.  Of course, most of your questions can be answered by looking around this website.  We encourage all parents and students to check our Linsly Today page on a weekly, if not daily basis to find the most current information about your school.

Linsly places an emphasis on a student's personal development. In order to educate students that standards of personal appearance are indicative of one's respect for others and one's recognition of the relationship between dress and grooming and the task to be performed, Linsly has established a dress code. Please download our dress code document.

The summer has marked a time of new beginnings at The Linsly School. We know your mind is swirling with questions: Will I make friends? Will the teachers be kind?  Can I do the work?  We can assure you that through the admissions process, you have proven capable of doing all that we will ask of you. With that in mind, you will be well prepared by starting the school year with the appropriate supplies.

Computers and technology play an important role in the learning process, and therefore, Linsly often expects students to perform tasks, complete assignments, and look up information using that technology. It is necessary for all new students and parents to understand what is expected when they use technology at Linsly.

Every student at Linsly is expected to participate in our summer reading program.  Shortly after the beginning of the school year, every student will be given an assessment on the required reading.  Thus, it is important that the reading be completed before you arrive to campus in August. The summer reading lists are posted online.

The Linsly Bookstore is located off of the Cafetorium on the lower level of Banes Hall.  Mrs. Margaret Zavatsky, the bookstore manager, can be reach at  (304) 233-3260, extension 109.

The required health forms for the 2011-2012 academic year are available for download as a .pdf file.  Please complete the forms and return to us before August 1st.  Physical exam forms, medication forms, and emergency consent forms are all available in a single download.

Each year, the Linsly Parent Association (LPA) holds a used clothing and book sale in the Cafetorium.  The event will take place from 8:00 AM until 10:00 AM on Saturday, August 6, 2011.  Please download more information about the sale.

If you are interested in participating in a preseason sport, please download the .pdf file of dates and times for your first practice.  The download will also contain your coach's contact information.
BOARDING STUDENTS: If you plan to stay in the dormitory during preseason, you must register online prior to the first practice.

Please download the 2012-2013 academic calendar. Of course, this website's main news page, the Linsly Today page, should be viewed weekly, if not more frequently, for important calendar addtions or changes. Please "bookmark" that page to find it easily.

All new boarding students should download the most recent Dormitory Handbook.  It is expected that every student will have read this handbook by the time they arrive in August.

Each class at Linsly will travel at a designated time to the Linsly Outdoor Center (LOC) at Raccoon State Park in Pennsylvania.  Please download the LOC information sheet that outlines the dates and policies for the trip.

All boarding families should be aware of some dates that will become important as we progress throughout the school year. The dates reflect when our dormitories are closed at the start of holidays and breaks, and when our dormitories reopen at the end of holidays and breaks.
