Some of the teachers are wonderful and seem interested in the students' learning and reaching goals they set. These teachers appear to be the newer ones. Many of the tenured teachers don't seem interested in helping kids reach individual goals. One (tenured) math teacher even suggested that rather than us worrying about helping our daughter work towards better grades that we tell her that she might not be cut out for better grades and we should really teach her to accept just being below average. The teacher actually said this would be better for our daughter's self-esteem to accept that she wasn't as good as the other kids, rather than be disappointed by trying and failing! I was disappointed that this was the type of teachers this school found qualified to teach the children. The only reason for the two stars instead of one was because there were a couple of teachers who worked with our daughter, set goals with her, and saw many of those goals reached. The "experienced" teachers did little to impress us in that regard.

10! It's been a really wonderful school for my kids to attend. I have felt comfortable and grateful having them there. I know they are getting a very good education. They love school and get good grades which does say a lot about the school and teachers. Parents are given opportunities to volunteer to help at school. Which I have done at times so I have seen how good everything is there. Lincoln welcomes parents and listens to their concerns and really works to make sure the kids have a good experience and learn what they need to. They have carnivals at Halloween and they have an end of the year one. We have student teachers from the college who help in the classrooms as well so they teachers have the help and time to accomplish everything that needs done and so the kids in the classrooms get the help and attention they need. If you are moving to Rexburg it's a small town but it is wonderful here. All of the schools here are great and your kids will get an amazing education and experience. The families and parents are wonderful too. Your kids will have good friends and the town is family friendly and welcoming. We might have to move for my husband's job. That's why I'm on here writing this review. I've been looking trying to find the best schools in the area where we are looking to move. I keep thinking "how am I going to possibly find a school as good as the ones they've been attending? With teacher and administration as good? And with the support and programs that have been so amazing?" There aren't enough parent reviews on here. A few but not enough to feel like you really get a good feel for the schools. So I'm leaving one for anyone who needs assurances that the schools here are great. No worries.

The bullying at this school is so out of control and the teachers and especially the principal and vice principal

Rexburg has a very competitive religious community (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). Talented individuals can be overshadowed by even more talented individuals - our Jr. Miss competitions testify to that. Cliques are abundant. Some are students seeking to excel and help others, others are looking to rebel to make an identity for themselves. I'll never forget how hard I laughed when the senior goth clique graduated and a group of sophomores with newly goth themed painted faces took over their table. All in all an excellent school. Students are challenged to succeed and the staff has a genuine interest in the success of their students.
