    "Right Now I am in the school and It is not that good. There are to much fighting in both 7 and 8 grade sides. Students don't listen the the teachers. Some teachers don't really teach and do their job. They would just rain havoc in the room. The school is on a very little budget so there are not much good stuff in the school. They don't have the latest computers and books. Most books are ripped everywhere. The health books in Health class are just messed up. They also can't afford to supply some air conditioners in the blazing spring and summer in school. Some teachers try to control the students but it doesn't work out as they plan. Students don't really care about learning. They just chill around talking a lot. They also use a lot of bad languages. Some teachers even use it on kids. When I think of this school. There is really nothing good about this school. This school needs improvements. Not a great school to go to. Lincoln Middle School is the only Passaic Middle School there so there is no choice when living in Passaic for education for 7 and 8 grade. I hope this school will improve in its future years if possible."

    "Right now I attend LMS and its great. The teachers are great , they try to get you to do your very best. there are many after school activities and clubs which are great to keep students out of gangs. Well right now im in and advanced 8th grade class and I've learned many things. People say so many things about LMS that are not real. But the truth is that Lincoln Middle School is GREAT!"

    "I truly belive that most teachers are doing their best under grave conditions. My son has had excellent results since attending # 4. He was able to achieve Honor Roll all 4 marking periods in 7th grade and because of that has been placed in Advanced Classes for 8th grade, something he had not done through all of elementary school. There are some teachers who just don't care and are there just to receive a paycheck. But for the most part I've seen a lot of teachers who go above and beyond the basic needs of their students and do their best to keep parents involved. With that being said more parental involvement is needed in all areas. All in all the school is a good school if your child can keep their focus. The teachers and staff can only do but so much with their limited funds they get."

    "I taught at LMS for a year. Most of the teachers do their best under a difficult situation. The main issue is that nearly all the students are extremely deficient in all areas. Because of this, alot of time is spent trying to make the kids more literate in the hopes that this will improve their performance in other areas. Compounding this problem is an extreme lack or parental involvement and support. There's only so much a teacher can do. After school its the parents' responsibility to see that homework is done and tests are studied for. Regardless of the students' performance, the odds are the he/she will get pushed through to the next grade. This seems to be what the parents want and the school seems happy to oblige."
