Welcome to Edmund F. Lindop
School!
The Edmund F. Lindop Elementary School is a one-school district,
one square mile in area, settled in the Western suburb of Broadview.
We serve children from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade who
live in the District
92 Boundaries.
Lindop Elementary enrolls an approximate total of 500 students.
Our modest size enables our faculty of fifty teachers an enjoyable
average class size of eighteen students. Smaller class size means
more individual attention and a pleasant learning environment for
our students.

Focus On Literacy
Lindop School is focused on improving literacy instruction at all
levels and throughout the curriculum. Teachers have multiple opportunities
to talk about teaching, reading, writing, speaking, and listening
the components of a balanced literacy program. "Best practices"
of reading instruction, established by research, informs us that
reading aloud to children every day and establishing daily time
for sustained silent reading can have significant effects on reading
achievement. These are just two of many practices which Lindop classrooms
have adopted to promote student success.
Reading specialists at the primary, intermediate, and junior high
levels work with teachers and students to give support to the new
initiative. Assessment, as an ongoing practice, plays a key role
in helping teachers identify strengths and weaknesses for each child.
This then allows a teacher to modify their teaching strategies to
address individual student needs.
