I have two kids that both qualified for Early Childhood Special Education and attended this school. I cannot speak highly enough of the teachers and principle here! They always keep me informed of what is happening and want my input as well. My kids have both progressed enormously and they also love
Posted by a parent on 6/12/2022Daughter was touched in appropriately not once but twice by other students. Staff didn’t take it serious. Ever since she’s been having some emotional issues and not wanting to go to school (obviously).
Posted by a parent on 6/9/2022This school is not good for children with special needs. They believe yelling and showing aggression is an acceptable way to teach 4 year olds with learning differences. Had to pull my son out because he was getting scared to go
Posted by a parent on 12/8/2021My granddaughter goes to this school and just loves all of the teachers and staff so far (she is in 3rd). I pick her up at least 3 days a week.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI love working at Lincoln! Wouldn't want to be anywhere else :)This school has had a bad reputation in the past, but honestly - come visit! You will see right away it is not at all what people say. This school is great, the kids and families are great and the teachers work hard. Our principal is one of the best I've ever worked with. The hallways are calm and the kids are learning 100%.Other Review3y ago - Northeastern Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy youngest children attend, and we've had wonderful experiences. Everyone is helpful, kind and the building is beautiful. I do wish there were more after school activities boys could join, as my daughter has attened girl scouts, girls on the run and even joined a cheer leading group... And there has been nothing for my son, but over all... I love that my children are safe, and in such a wonderful building with such caring and intelligent staff.Other Review9y ago
