Honestly, this school is just bad. I have transferred schools a lot and this is the worst by far. So glad i have moved on from this school and have a proper learning experience. Keep in mind I am a passed student with special needs. If you are perfectly average this school should be fine

Our son loves Lincoln (4th year there). He is a minority student and has a 504 plan as well. I’ve found the school to be accommodating and feel well supported. By the way, some information listed here is not current.

Just finishing kindergarten but our experience with the teacher are not so great

This school contains so many teachers and staff who care and work hard to bring a good experience to our children. I notice if there are places they feel they may fall short, the school and district are always working on continuous improvement and how to reach each student.
