There is a new principal at Lincoln Terrace this year. She is very nice to parents and always has time to speak with students and parents. I can really see a change in the way teachers and other staff members treat parents. They are more friendly and welcoming. There is not as many fights this year with students and my child seems to be learning a lot. Smaller class sizes may have something to do with this.

My son has been attending Lincoln Terrace since Kindergarten and I have nothing but good things to say about the school. The principal truly cares about the welfare of the students and the teachers enjoy what they do and do it without complaining. The communication between the parents and the teachers is awesome and I've seen nothing but growth in my child. He has one more year at Lincoln Terrace and I'm looking forward to another great year. Keep up the good work.

Our daughter has been here for 5 years now. This is an excellent school with a top quality staff. They really care about the children and try very hard to do an excellent job without a great deal of parental support. We are very happy with Lincoln Terrace!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Virginia used the Standards of Learning (SOL) tests to assess students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, writing in grades 5 and 8, science in grades in 3, 5 and 8, and history in grades 3 through 8. The SOL tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Virginia. The goal is for all students to pass the tests.
