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.

Although all the sports teams get funding i would like to see more equal funding throughout all sports instead of more going to football.

Lincoln should consider doing work in & outside of the building. LCPA could use a semi-new look after all the years of being historic

I love the teachers at LCPA. They really encouraged us and seemed to really care about their topics. The only thing that I have against LCPA is that once COVID happened the school as a whole never recovered. My year was fine but the years below us were struggling and the school system went slack when it came to keeping the students academics up. I know that during COVID teachers should give students some slack and let them turn things in late. But by 2022 which is when I graduated the school didn't seem to enforce the academic standards we use to be known for. I don't know if it's changed since I graduated and I hope it did because the teachers did honestly a fantastic job on challenging their students.

My child attended this school for 3 years. He was a honor roll student the entire time. He was bullied and teachers just looked the other way. The counselors there are worthless. This school has a high rating because they can be selective about who attends, can't cut it, they kick you out. The best...

Our high school played against Lincoln Prep last evening and we, the Chillicothe Hornet fans, were extremely impressed with the Blue Tigers' team and supporters' sportsmanship and the amazing cheerleading squad! Those young ladies were exceptional!
