About Us
Lindero Canyon Middle School is nestled in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains in the city of Agoura Hills, California providing a safe and nurturing environment where everyone is respected, encouraged to do their best, recognized for their achievements, and given the support to succeed in high school and beyond. We are proud to be one of only 78 schools statewide identified as a California 2015-2016 Schools to Watch-Taking Center Stage model middle school. Additionally, Lindero was named a School to Watch by the National Forum.
The mission of our teachers and staff is to ensure students receive an exceptional and inspiring educational experience, preparing them for high school by fostering high academic values and challenging them to become lifelong learners with creative problem solving skills. Our teachers are continuously developing innovative, inspirational curricula and approach teaching with appropriately challenging instruction intended to help our students prepare for a rapidly changing world. Administration, teachers, parents, and our community all work together on our “whole child” approach, not only preparing students to be academically successful, but guiding them to become effective communicators, critical thinkers, and well-rounded individuals. Along with academic achievement, fostering self-worth and self-image to maintain healthy peer relationships is critical, so when students leave Lindero they have not only the tools they need to be successful high school students, but have cherished middle school memories where they remember being treated with respect and kindness.
