    "I love this wonderful public school because their fabulous teachers nurtured my son right into a challenging college prep High School and now continue to teach and nurture my daughter. Their wonderful PTA and FOL work hard and well to provide extracuriculars like Art, Music, Band, Computers & Technology, PE and even a Climbing Wall. And now, we are even going for a Greenhouse Rooftop Garden !!! How wonderful is that? My children have always felt safe and at home when they are at school. I love this school."

    "Lincoln is a wonderful school. It has many programs like band and sports, but the truth is, it's the parents. Many of the parents come from relatively wealthy families, and are kind to put their time and money into Lincoln. We also have a wonderful principal, who has organized many new oppurtunitiess for students. My children were both in I.B, and they were challenged evry day at Lincoln. The teachers are not the best in the city, but they do not have any teachers worth criticizing. Most students also live close to school, and the surrounding neighborhood to Lincoln is very welcoming. Overall, Lincoln is a great school, especially for a Public School."

    "Fantastic. My child was in the pre-IB and was always challenged. He was well prepared for one of the top selective entrance high schools. The band program is FANTASTIC. The sports programs are good too. The principal has a great manner with the students. Boys are well appreciated in the school, which can sometimes be a problem in strong academic programs."

    "Our daughter has been at Abraham Lincoln for 3 years now (grades 1-3). We have been uniformly impressed by the school, in particular the quality of the teachers and the high level of parental involvement. The qualities that make this school so wonderful are not the obvious, quanitifable ones (test scores, student-to-teacher ratio, etc), though Lincoln holds its own in these areas, but in the care, attention to detail, and esprit de corps of the place. Everyone, from the principal to the teachers, students and parents, cares deeply about the school. To give an example, in second grade, our daughter's teacher organized a toy drive for children in Tanzania, and her daughter, a member of the Peace Corps, personally delivered the toys. There are many other stories like this. We really feel our daughter is becoming a 'citizen of the world' at this school, learning far beyond the standard curriculum."
