Since Lindbergh School District’s inception in 1949, Lindbergh staff and students have raised money and donated time to assist those in need throughout their community. Support has helped those close to home as well as those far away. In 2005, more than $22,000 was donated in a little over 24 hours to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina. In the past 14 years, Lindbergh elementary schools raised more than $300,000 to assist the American Heart Association through Jump Rope for Heart. When needed, every school has stepped up in all sorts of ways, going “above and beyond” for others.
