    Its a safe, clean, and good school to spend your 4 years! Teachers here are mostly nice and good enough to teach. But sometimes, you have to take initiative to act for yourself since its a pretty big school so no one would ever come to you and asking what you think. However, this is a pretty good school to stay for four year without stressing yourself too much as well as not slagging and not learning anything. Therefore, as a mustang, I will recommend this school! And they also offer ELD classes for new comers which is really helpful!

    Abraham Lincoln is not the best high school in the U.S but it’s where you can improve yourself and make your memory worth. The environment fits with everyone and as a English learner, I’ve received a lot of support from my teachers and the staffs are extremely friendly, also I made many new friends. I think Lincoln will be a perfect choice for anyone who wants to have fun and study at the same time, no stress. I would take one star off because they have to improve on the bathrooms but after all, everything is just great!
    Most of the teachers were nice, caring, and able to effectively teach the material. School spirit was present but not heavily emphasized; although, this didn't detract from the fact that most people got along with their fellow peers. There is a good amount of diversity, but the school has a majority of Asian and Latino students. The administrators are rather kind and open but stern when needed; however, it is rather easy to get along with them.

    Abraham Lincoln High is a decent place for a high school experience, depending on the teachers, club/sport participation, and one's peers.
