Lincoln Elementary School

Several years ago the center started undergoing staffing changes that have stripped this center of what made it special. The veteran care givers left for better opportunities and the replacements are far from desirable. There are 3-4 quality teachers who remain but that isn’t sufficient. The teachers lack quality training that allows them to dynamically work with your child. The administrator has no clue about the “policies” in effect in each classroom. Each teacher is give. The freedom to navigate the discipline/incentive charts themselves, but not all of them have the training that allows them to understand the impact the effect on your child. When your child goes through any behavioral difficulty they are vastly limited in their capacity to navigate the situations. They try their own resolutions and when they start to communicate the problem to the parent the situation has exceeded their capabilities. This as a parent you are presented with a situation that is at a level 8/10 and correction is expected immediately. There are no dynamic interventions, you are left puzzled at how teachers without early education training have been trying to problem solve the behavior(s). The administrator admitted directly to me that the teachers prior to the pre-school room don’t have specialized training in early childhood development. Only the main teacher in the pre-school room had that training, but there are 3-4 other teachers who teach in the classroom throughout the week. Despite the changes in staffing and questioning if the quality was dropping, we stayed because we had been with them for 7.5 years. However, over the last 5 months we saw the lack of quality teachers, the lack of training and the unprofessional behavior we had been fearful existed. When I challenged the administrator to be more proactive, dynamic and to create interventions to help prevent things from getting out of control. Rather than making everything about the child and their development, the administrator made it about herself and spent time trying to defend how she and the teachers had done everything they can. It’s a very sad portrayal of what the owner, Kelly Brisker, has built since 2006.

Evil, woke, destructive training and indoctrination of children and attempting to destroy families.

Wonderful school environment. Safety and security is highly valued and taken seriously. Students are held to high academic and behavior standards. They are well staffed and have caring teachers. My children are challenged in their academics; supported when needed. They have amazing athletic opportunities that other diocesan schools didn't provide. The cafeteria offers a salad bar everyday as well as a variety of lunches my kids are excited to have. We've had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this school.
