Link endeavors to create a powerful learning community built on a collective commitment to excellence and enduring core values. By building a strong academic foundation and instilling life long values, Link aims to develop students who will be successful in higher education and responsible and resourceful citizens who give back to others. Working Toward Our Vision… Educational Excellence: To provide students of all ability levels an exceptional education on par with the best middle school education offered anywhere in the country. A Link education will provide students the academic foundation and character development necessary to be successful learners and members of their future communities. High School Placement: To place students in top high schools in the region and country and to insure that they have the skills to succeed in those programs. Inspiring Other Schools: To be recognized as a model urban middle school for our student success and innovative educational practices. Link aims to inspire and support the development of other highly effective schools that provide similar success for thousands of under-served students. Connecting With Our History… Link, a non-denominational middle school, was founded in 1969 by the Sisters of St. Dominic of Caldwell, NJ in response to the 1967 Newark riots that left much of the Central Ward in poverty. The Sisters desired that Link be a force for restoration in the devastated city by providing educational excellence for its youth. Today the need for high caliber education in Newark’s poorest neighborhoods is as great as ever. and Living Our Core Values... A message from the Chair, Sister Arlene Antczak, O.P. For 37 years, Link Community School has remained deeply committed to the pursuit of its mission and the fulfillment of its vision. Link has created a powerful and highly effective learning community for the children of economically disadvantaged families in Newark and the surrounding urban areas. We know the school, begun as Project Link in 1969, works. Year after year, the school has yielded measurable results and the 2005-2006 school year is no exception, as you will note from this annual report. The success of the school is made possible through the efforts of a devoted board of trustees, a committed faculty and staff, and generous donors and partners. To continue to build upon past successes, the Strategic Planning Council, a team of staff members and trustees led by Principal Marnie McKoy, developed a new Strategic Plan for Link spanning 2006 through 2011. This new plan, to be implemented in the 2006-2007 school year, outlines the steps needed not only to maintain what we have established but also to meet the challenges and opportunities the school will face in the future. We are extremely grateful to all those who sustain Link's mission and vision, providing a nurturing yet demanding educational environment where urban students will thrive and achieve academic excellence. With your support, Link will be able to continue to report the success of our school—and our students—for many years to come. Respect Responsibility Honesty Caring Doing One’s Best Following Directions A message from the Principal, Marnie G. McKoy “All hail LCS!” This is the title and opening line of Link’s new school song, penned and musically arranged by Link students from the classes of 2005 and 2006—a collaboration that reflects the spirit of Link Community School. It is a song full of pride and celebration, much like this Annual Report. This report reflects the continuation of a work that began in 1969 and has continued successfully because of the collaboration among students, parents, staff, trustees and donors. We are proud of the progress we have made this year and are excited to share this report with you. You will read about the additions to our program: a theater arts course, a health course and a seventh grade study hall. Also noteworthy are the students’ stellar standardized test results, which have improved four grade levels. We were fortunate to continue pre-existing programs and to introduce new ones. As our new school song states, “We’ll never forget that [you] were a part of Link Community.” Because of your support, Link’s mark on the lives of our students is indelible. Although they leave our school, the academic and moral lessons that they learned at Link last a lifetime. Your continued support energizes us and enables us to change lives each day. As you read this report, we invite you to celebrate with us, for this year’s results are reflective of a collaborative effort. We will serve the underserved until there is no longer a need to do so. Until then, “All Hail LCS!” Respect Responsibility Honesty Caring Doing One’s Best Following Directions Year in Review, 2005-2006 Impressive student results Oratory Prep, Westover School, Immaculate Conception High School, Marist High School, St. Vincent Academy, St. Standardized Test Scores: As measured by a pre-test and a Benedict’s Prep, St. Patrick High School, St. Mary of the post-test, the cumulative scores of the graduating class of Assumption High School, St. Anthony High School, and 2006 increased by 4.0 grade levels overall in reading, Marylawn of the Oranges Academy. language, math and social studies on the national McGraw- Hill CTB standardized test, far surpassing the expected level High School Graduation: In a survey of our 2002 graduates, of 1.8.

    STUDENTS SAID… • I had a good time, and the facilitators were really good. • I enjoyed it. I could be open and honest without being judged. • Manytown made me think of things I didn't even realize. Because my high school isn’t very diverse, I haven’t really thought about what would happen if it was. • It allowed me to open my eyes and be able to connect with people from other schools who deal with tough situations everyday. • I seriously enjoyed this experience and think more students should be given the opportunity to come to a Manytown Conference. • This is my 4th Manytown and I take away something new each time. • It was a very valuable experience and I feel I got to know/understand people that are different from me. • [Manytown is a] very good opportunity to connect with students from other schools around the same area and discuss common issues in our schools. • I think that programs like this are really important and teens need to be more aware of these types of issues. It's great to see so many teens willing to come out and participate. • It was a great and educational experience. I would like to come back. The things I learned I will take back to my school and teach others. • It was great! I have more of an urge to stop violence/bullying. • I feel that this experience was very helpful. I learned a lot and feel more comfortable with confronting bullies and helping other people. • I felt it was an extremely good experience in which I can take what I have learned and educate people in my school about it.
