Go LHS!!!! I am a graduate of Lincoln High School class of '07!!! I am very pleased with LHS, not only did I enjoy the school when I went there, but I still enjoy it as I watch both of my sisters find their way through the halls. LHS' teachers, staff and students all work together toward one common goal unity. I attended LHS for four years and never had any problems with so- called gangs, drugs or violence. The teachers are caring, motivated and determined to help you in any way, but you yourself must take action and ask for it. Face it if your child is failing at LHS it's because of their lack of responsibility. ( You are not always going to be there to hold their hand)!
I'm a graduate of Lincoln High School. I am pleased to say that the atmosphere at Lincoln is just superb. As long as the student does not get involved with the 'bad students' on campus, all 4 years should be enjoyable. Teachers are always willing to help, and there are many extra curricular activities to take place in.
Lincoln Lincoln Lincoln!!!! 10-0 baby!!! Lincoln has not only the best football team but also has amazing teachers and staff who strive to make the school and their students better. I am proud to be a LHS Fighting Zebra!!

I myself am a graduate of Lincoln High School. I'm amazed how much this school has changed. Not for the best. Unfortunately I've had the experience of seeing first hand how bad it really is. My daughter was involved in an altercation awhile back, and I felt the cituation was handled poorly. Istead of 'getting rid of the problem' the school suspended my daughter and we had to go through the whole process of having an actual hearing. After a month of suspension, yes a whole month of not being in school, they say my daughter was not at fault. Imagine that. The only reason this came to head was due to the irrationality of the other parent. I do agree there is a problem with 'wanna be gang members'Just because my daughter chooses not to associate with them, they will continue to harrass her. I am very displeased.
Like every school, Lincoln has it problems but it is up to student to decide how those problems will affect their learning. Lincoln has improved over the past years. It is now a California Distinguished School and has the largest Agriculture Farm for a high school in the California
my children went to lincoln high. The teachers and staff are dedicated and sincere
On the outside, Lincoln High School looks like it wouldn't be up to par with other local schools. However, the teachers are very experienced and the students usually get along very well, not as much in 'cliques'. The staff are amazing. When my son wasn't put into any math class, we talked to the counselor and she immediately put him into a class. The clubs and sports programs are also very well organized. All I have to say is, don't judge this book by its cover!
Lincoln High School is a great school. The school is very diverse. There are students that rope cattle on the weekends and those that enjoy the city life. The teachers tend to love their jobs many even graduated from LHS themselves. Overall the school does a very good job with the students.
