I've been a substitute at this school for at least four years. I live in the neighborhood. The teachers are amazing and collaborative. The office staff is great. This school really is a family and they truly care about their students. I am currently working as a long term substitute between this school and another school and despite not having technology integrated into the buildings (they have Chromebooks and have been teaching the students with Google Classroom but the buildings themselves have yet to be updated), Lincoln approached distance learning effectively. This is a school where teachers are encouraged to be learners and to collaborate and build each others' strengths.

This school in horribly unorganized and the overall staff has very low standards for their students. There are a few teachers I've met who care deeply about the students, but lack the resources to provide a better learning atmosphere. The principal doesn't seem to care about improving the school overall. I hated sending my daughter here. She had difficulty in reading, and when I reached out to the staff regarding what can we do to help, they had nothing to say. I asked for a calendar of events so we could stay abreast of school activities and they looked at me puzzled and had to copy a staff calendar. This is a horrible school and does not prepare students for the next level. If anything it sets them back and keeps them on track to be below standard and have a horrible educational experience in the future. Its as if Lincoln expects the students to fail and the parents not to care. They do not provide any meaningful resources to for parents, students, and staff to connect. Thank God my daughter got into a good middle school where she is being challenged and has a chance.
