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.

Best part is learning chemistry. The teacher is very knowledgeable and prepares us for college. The science branches are very good. Math could use some work I believe the teacher don't encourage students.

Lincoln High School is a great school, during my 4 years there I did a lot of activities including, track, cross country, marching band, choir and theatre. The teachers there actually cared for the students and the only problems the school really faced was the lack of funding and the poor decisions made by certain administrators.
