  • Reviewed by Former Student on June 12, 2011
  • Rating: 5 (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • I attended both lincoln middle and lincoln high and the school homework load appropriateness was not good for the middle school but was ok on the high school level. Lincoln did prepare me for college because it was an easy transition into college. The Extracurricular activities were awesome. Our basketball and dance team both went to state competitions and the coaches are committed not only to performances on the field but also in the classroom. I had opportunities for scholarships and dual-credit (taking a college class in the high school building) that i would not have had at other schools. There was even a class to prepare me for the ACT. The building was safe and the teacher involvement was excellent. I am not sure about staff because i attended before the middle and high school were "integrated". I would rank student achievement as outstanding because most people i know who attended are in college and succeeding in life. Overall, great school that really does prepare students for college.
