I had 2 kids in this school, a second grader and a preschooler. The teachers were awesome, the staff was great, and we even loved the bus driver! I have never had such caring teachers, who went above and beyond with my kids. We were so sad to leave this school.

My daughter goes to preschool there, she absolutely loves her teacher. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Great school.

Lincoln School is not the same school I attended as a child. I am a divorced mother and my son lives with his father, and attends this school. Half way through last year, I pulled him out at great legal risk to myself because my child was being bullied relentlessly on a daily basis, and the school did nothing except, "stand the bullies against the wall at recess." I'm sorry, that's the same "punishment" that they used when I was a child, 23 years ago. Children have changed. The only reason we found out that he was being bullied is because he would come home to his father's house, once with a bruise on his stomach, and once with a fat, cut, bloody lip because he'd been punched, yet neither my ex, his wife, nor myself received a phone call. My child told us that the teacher and principal told him that he was ok and that the bully was being punished. I'm sorry, punished or not, a parent deserves a phone call when their child is physically assaulted at school. My son also came home with lice and when the school was informed, my ex was told, "we're not at liberty to discuss head lice with parents." Uhhh... Since when?

I had a child who attended Lincoln in the 2nd and 3rd grade. She is special needs and while I felt her teachers did their best, I found the principle and general organization of the school to be lacking. The principle on more than one occasion failed to be in contact with me as a parent when it came to pertinent issues with my daughter. And failed to call back when I had left messages with her to please call. I found her to "jump the gun" when it came to displine and wasn't interested in getting feed back from her staff. My daughter missed the bus SEVERAL times in the two years she attended Lincoln. She is "special needs" and needed extra help and it wasn't until I became upset that they assigned a person to help keep her on track. Even after that she missed the bus a couple more times. I also sent notes with my daughter and would call if she needed to ride an alternate bus, and they still would put her on the wrong bus. And I know I'm not the only one this became an issue with. She had attended a few other schools and this is the only school she had these type of issues with.

A nice small town school, with great faculty and students alike.
