School Information
Our program is a two way immersion program designed to emphasize challenging standards in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies while enriching our student’s development in both their first language and a second language. In a two-way immersion classroom, the ratio of native English speakers to native Spanish speakers is at least 35:65. Two-way immersion is specifically designed to meet the needs of English Language Learners.
Lincoln Elementary serves 327 students with 56 certified and classified staff. Staff members are committed to ensuring that all students gain the academic knowledge and skills necessary for continued success. Lincoln staff work to identify and interrupt practices that reflect personal, professional or institutional racism thereby reducing the likelihood that race will predict a student’s graduation rate, qualification for special education or attention to school discipline. Additionally, our commitment includes recruiting and retaining staff members who represent our students and families.
