Lincoln students have opportunities to participate in affinity and leadership groups to grow their collaboration, leadership, and teamwork skills. These activities occur during school hours and are available to students in both the Elementary and Montessori tracks.
Students build leadership through Playworks Junior Coaches program, which encourages teams of students to work together to learn games, fair play, and positive conflict resolution strategies. Junior Coaches are then equipped to teach these skills and lessons appropriately to their classmates. Students learn cooperation through recess games, supported by the fourth and fifth grade junior coaches.
Lincoln believes in giving students the opportunity to be leaders in their school and community. The Student Leadership Team consists of 12-14 students in 4th-6th grade. These students are selected by their classroom teachers and have proven themselves to be good role models for the rest of the student body. With their teacher sponsors, the Student Leadership Team helps our administrator with school tours, welcomes and introduces guests to our school, welcomes new students, and brainstorms and implements improvements to our school and community.
