Unfortunately, irresponsible individuals felt it was okay to ruin school property. On Sunday (August 21) evening, someone made the decision to drive their vehicle across the Linden Middle School practice field creating multiple ruts and creating unusable areas for our students.
Over the past few weeks community members, and school personnel, have spent many hours making enhancements to this space, in preparation for our students to use. It is very sad to think that some would intentionally destroy opportunities for our students!
If you have any information as to the individual(s) who did this, please call the Argentine Police Department or Linden Community Schools.

We have been informed by the Genesee County Road Commission that Silver Lake Rd. (between Lobdell Rd. and Glen Hatt Rd.) will remain closed until next Thursday, August 25th due to the ongoing road work.
If your student rides the bus, your bus driver will be in contact with you regarding transportation updates and times because of the road closure. The timing schedule that is posted on our website will not be correct until the road work is completed.
If your student drives to school, or you transport your student(s), I would encourage you to leave earlier than normal, and anticipate traffic delays.
