Overview Paragraph

For nearly a century, we have been a leader in NYC education. Lincoln alumni have gone on to great success. Through our partnership with Johns Hopkins University, we offer Small Learning Communities (SLCs) such that students get individualized attention with access to the resources and facilities of a large comprehensive high school. The first two years are dedicated to socio-emotional development and meeting high school graduation requirements while 11th and 12th grades are devoted to college and career readiness. Our extensive elective course offerings, including Advanced Placement (AP) and CUNY College Now classes, empower our academic achievers to complete up to a year of college credit before graduation.
