    I really enjoy Lincoln Charter! Though it’s a small school, the community is close and we’re heavily involved with service. However, since it’s so small there’s limited opportunities

    I loved going to Lincoln Charter, the teachers and staff are great! On an academic side the school is great, but on a more social level, it is a struggle navigating such a small school, especially in middle and high school.
    Lincoln Charter has changed a lot over the past 5 years. Teachers care about their students, sports programs are excellent, and clubs are average at best. Because it is such a small school, the school doesn't have all of the resources that most public schools have (cafeteria, library, multiple labs for stem classes) but make up for it in other ways (catered lunch, wide selection of college classes, service learning opportunities). I have had a good experience as a lincoln charter student over the past four years.
