Lincoln Middle School

My child has always been very intellegent, athletic & gets good grades in school. But she was also shy & slow to warm up to new people. Since her arrival at Lincon MS she has really blossomed! She now plays several instuments, has made some new friends that could turn into life-long-friends & has joined several clubs & team sports.

If you have a child with special needs, this is not the right school.

There has been a high turnover of principals in recent years. In my opinion the school is way too strict. As far as the teachers, most were good and responded to my concerns right away, others I had to leave more than one message, and yet still there were times when my call or email was not returned at all. I was happy with this school a couple of years ago, but this last year was not a good one. In my opinion LMS is education for the masses.

Lincoln Middle School Is a wonderful learning environment for children. Not only are the teachers amazing, the whole staff is as well.

This is an excellent school, with a great focus on the whole child. Academics are stressed, but no one forgets that these students are going through the biggest growth period of their life. Our family has had two very different students receive an excellent education and very ver well prepared for high school. The teachers are some of the best in the country!

I had a horrible experience at LMS. about a fourth of all the teachers i had were great, the rest were either blah or were really bad. The people there were incredibly segregated and judgemental of one another. the rules were ridiculously strict. the campus looked depressing. every single day i spent there felt the same and i feel like i wasted 3 years of my life going to that terrible school.

We are very pleased with LMS! I am not sure if there would have been a better choice of school for our doughtier than Lincoln. There is a lot of work, yes, but that is precisely the point. She was accepted part time in a CS university, and I strongly belive we owe it all to Lincoln's learning environment and academic program. I would recommend this school to anyone.

Lincoln has been a great help to my daughter, when she needed help in her math class, the teachers/counselors were there to help even befor I could call. I know that wouldn't have happend in another school district.Thank you lincoln

The quality of Academic Programs is high, the teachers are knowledgable of individual students and senssitive to their concerns or challenges. There is a counselor for each grade who is accessible and proactive. However, there is little in the way of arts programs available. Expect to have to supplement your child's experiences at nearby places like The Brentwood Art Center or various music and dance schools in the area. Parents are definately involved and contributive to the school. The administration is very approachable with teh overall feeling that there is great care for each and every student's needs.

It is a good school. Though not as warm and community oriented as other schools in the district.
