I was student at LMS. Lincoln is a really nice school but has a lot of bullying problems and the teachers and administration don't do anything about it. My three years at Lincoln were the worst years of my life because of the bullying. The school is very nice for the vocal and band students. The school has an award winning Show Choir.
My 3 children went to this school.The oldest went to the older school, which was HORRIBLE. The new school improved but I have to say that they STILL have issues and I am SO glad that my kids are done with them. Not all the teachers are responsive, although some were, even though I was very involved.The worst school years of my kids lives. The principal was very engaged but the assistant principal was useless.Very unresponsive and not helpful at all, and it didn't help that MOST of the kids totally hate her, which goes to show how much she connects with them.
Over the past 4 years I've learned, observed, and watched the school decline. The building was opened in 2006. In 7th grade there weren't enough lockers in the wing and my child had to use a locker in a different part of the school. In one of the classes, there weren't enough desks available, the library is still seriously lacking books. There was an excellent band program that met twice a week and won top awards at competions. Now, although there are still instrumental classes, the band only meets once every 2 weeks, and are pulled out of acedemic classes. REACH was a great opportunity for students to learn topics of their choice. Now they are assigned classes that they have no interest in. The focus is on trying to get 'bad' students to behave, and the acedemically challenged to past the test. The higher end students are being left behind.
My kid never feels safe to go to school here and he doesn't like it he is always comes home crying because of the kids he also thinks the teachers are unfair don't send your child here if you want to see them happy
I am a student here at lincoln and i think is an amazing school and is wondeful for learning. There are amazing teachers that will go out on a limb for you to help you learn, there is an amazing band and choir program , and a program called Reach which helps kids afterschool.Overall i think lincoln middle school is a great and amazing school.
Being a student at this school i can tell you from a good understanding about it. One main probelem is the disaplin. Its terrible. Other students run a muck and dont even get introuble. Most of the teachers here are not certified for two subjects. If i had the option to chang schools I would do it in an instant
This school is the best school I been at yet. My teachers on is Mrs.Seabert. she is on of the best one there I know and there are to many to name. well I love this school and I hope I will always like to be there. P.S. the school building is great and new.
This school is great because we have a lot of useful afterschool activities like the school play and REACH. I love this school!
I learn so much every day and am motivated to do more by my teachers. The teachers here are so great. They give their all and make you feel comftorble.There are so many things to do after school or in school. Like band, dinner theater, and countless sports teams to join. There is also a REACH program that we do here. You can do anything from learn how to be a babysitter to have hands on experiences with aquatic life to making costumes for a play in REACH. The possibilities here are endless.
