East St. Louis-Lincoln Middle School

This review is based solely on their band program. I have visited their school several times to work with the students in band. The band directors are dedicated and highly skilled. The band is one of the most popular classes at the school and the kids are hungry to learn. They are some of the best-behaved students I work with each year and their level of playing is very good considering the limited amount of funding they receive. There are schools in high-end districts that would love to have this kind of enthusiasm and participation. Highly recommend!

I am the parent of a first year student. We were quite sceptical enrolling due to the negative report card for the school. Boy, I don't know if its the teachers, the clean environment, the air, whatever it is keep it up! My son has a new zest for learning! He has had nothing but good things to say about his teachers, and he even prepares for school without a fuss. We, personally have no complaints, as of yet.

Lincoln Middle is a remarkable school, the teachers at this school really care and it shows. This school displays alot of school spirit and is not ashamed to show that lincoln pride. Our principal Mrs.Luberta Walker Allen is strict but she is all about education and the rules.
