Principal's Message

We are committed to providing quality, customizable education

It is my pleasure to welcome you to Linkonlearning. As an online learning community, we are here to assist diverse groups of learners, including special needs and gifted, in the job of learning. We are committed to providing quality, customizable education and training through innovative technologies. The staff and academic support personnel of Linkonlearning are approachable and will work to help you take full advantage of all the program has to offer.

This is your school; it is important that you feel you are an integral part of this community. I urge you to make the most of the opportunities, experience and advice that are available to you. We also recommend that students immerse themselves in our online library where they read or listen to a new or classic book; do their spelling drills; vote on their favourite Top Ten books, movies, celebrities, etc; improve their typing, spelling and math skills; learn how to write a book report; and much more. Students can also work with a tutor to improve their literacy skills or get help with essays.

I invite our stakeholders to help us achieve our goal of continuous improvement for our learning community. In order to reinvest in our students, we are continually striving to find ways to improve our teaching and learning. We are very interested in hearing from our students, parents and teachers. Your ongoing feedback helps us review our strengths and to anticipate and respond to our challenges.

We partner with parents in their children’s education. For our part, we provide outstanding lessons, a caring and supportive staff, and a safe, fun and interactive learning environment. Parents instil the value of education and a love of learning by reading to and with their children, utilizing the points reward program, by reviewing their student’s diagnostics that reveal strengths and weaknesses, and by taking an interest in their units of study. We encourage parents to talk with their children about the ideas and topics that they’re studying.

On behalf of the staff, I wish each and every one of you a successful and enjoyable year at Linkonlearning.
