GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I am currently a senior at Des Moines Lincoln high school, planning to go to Iowa state university this fall. I had A very fun experience at Lincoln high school with my friend and my teachers. Students are very friendly and i did not experience any bullying or any discrimination against my culture, beliefs, and gender. Teachers are friendly and take their job very seriously and they are extreamly patient with students. As an immigrant there are time when i have a difficulty of speaking and understanding English but again my teachers are always patient with me and teaches and explain lessons to me in a way I could understand. I am very grateful for all the teachers and staff at Lincoln high school.Like many other high school, Lincoln also got its own problem. I don't think that many student are prepared for college and there is lack of motivation toward further education.

what i like about Des Moines schools is that theres alot of diversity. yes some high schools are more advanced and have more resources then others but from what ive seen and experienced my years at the high school i would say there has been alot of changes that the district has made happened. but one thing i would like to see chnage in the years is the school actully getting you pre paired for college because i know its not going to be nothing like it is right now.
