School Profile:
Lincoln High School is committed to the conviction that most students can master rigorous academic and career/technical studies if school leaders and teachers create an environment that motivates students to make the effort to succeed.
At LHS, we focus on programs that:
- expand students' opportunities to learn a rigorous academic core with either a career/technical or academic concentration that is taught in ways that enable students to see the usefulness of what they have been asked to learn
- create supportive relationships between students and adults through our Advisor/Advisee program
- work as teacher advisers with parents and students to set goals and to help students take the right courses that prepare them for post secondary studies and careers through CAP conferences
- focus school leadership on supporting what and how teachers teach by providing common planning time and professional development aligned with school improvement plans through the TAP program
In this environment, more students will recognize that high school matters to their future and more students will become independent learners able to set future educational and career goals and choose which courses to take to achieve those goals. In an era of rising workplace requirements, getting a good high school education that counts is more important now than ever before.
