"I have two children that go there. One in an enrichment program and another regular student. The curriculum lacks challenges and does not develop the student. It substantially lacks in addressing core writing skills. There is no solid literature program. The science curriculum is weak. No comprehensive text book to form the basics of science is available. On the other hand, the math program, although different from most, is credible and the teachers who teach math do a good job. The enrichment program for weaker students is OUTSTANDING!! Social studies is also a weak program from a curriculum standpoint. The school needs to emphasize personal responsibly and less concern about social development. The kids are are there for an education which includes learning about being responsible and discipline. There are some good teachers, but most seem like they are there for the above average paycheck."

"Lincoln Middle School is an outstanding place for students to learn and grow. The principal is incredibly nice and very approachable. The teachers, particularly the young ones, are very motivated and creative. This is a fantastic school for bright, motivated kids--I can't speak to the other issues described here for special needs or struggling learners, but the honors programs are challenging and the athletics, particularly cross country, are well run and worth the $$. Excellent preparation for challenging high school curriculum and athletics."

"My daughter had a wonderful experience at Lincoln. Teachers used a team approach to provide a personal environment. She received the tools necessary for great success at Prospect High School, and college next year. They really are dedicated to our children and I feel fortunate to have such a wonderful school in our community!"

"I agree with the comments that the teachers are way to comfortable and ineffective. The team concept allows teachers to gang up on students rather than work through issues. The teaching method requires a great deal of homework, 3-4 hours a day. Any minor infraction results in a detention since its the only method they can find to encourage positive behavior. Its not really a positive environment for learning."
