Our neighborhood school has amazing teachers and supportive staff. My children are thriving at COES!!

We love the campus and activities. We have three kids in this district now and it's great.Giant improvement from the Rocklin district!Great communication and integrity!

I've had two children go through this school 12 years apart. Much has changed in that time. Since COVID things seem to have changed drastically at this school. Most of the teachers my child has are amazing but they are fighting battles they shouldn't have to. The level of disrespect from students and lack of parental engagement is shocking and disappointing. The political leanings of parents have easily spilled over into anger and resentment dating all the way back to the requirement to wear masks and their children are now spewing the hatred and disrespect the parents displayed two years ago. Instead of my daughter's teachers being able to teach their given subjects, they are handling continuous behavior problems from the same small group of kids. Likewise, the school has their hands tied as the law no longer allows them to expell kids from school. Honestly, it feels like the school needs to have an on-campus suspension location for the kids who clearly aren't being disciplned at home and clearly are not able to respect the school setting. That way they can hopefully learn at school without completely upending the education of their peers. It makes me sad this is the world my daugther lives in. This isn't unique to Lincoln but the anti-intellectualism movement has a foothold in this town, starting with at least a couple members of the school board. I'm hopeful with the changing migration of families, from other areas of California that embrace a quality education, we will see changes. The scores for this school, in my opinion, are NOT a reflection of the teachers (WPUSD Is one of the highest paying districts in the area) and a child can still get a good education, BUT parents MUST become more engaged in parenting their children, setting limits, limiting social media and set expectations regarding behavior.
