History of The Linden School'

Linden was co-founded by Diane Goodie and Eleanor Moore in September 1993. Prior to this they conudcted extensive research on girl-centered learning. As part of this research they visited various other girl-centered schools such as The Emma Willard School and Wellseley College.They also spent time with Peggy MacIntosh, the head of Wellseley College's Centre for Research on Women. The Linden school now offers Grades 1-12 at 10 Rosehill Avenue, near the corner of St. Clair and Yonge. When Linden first opened in 1993 the school only utilized the 3rd floor of the building. In 2001, Linden purchased the entire building.
