School Notes

Lincoln School is an independent college preparatory school founded on Quaker principles in 1884.
As the only all-girls Quaker school in the nation, Lincoln empowers its students to become bold leaders and to strive for greatness.
At the same time, Lincoln`s educational philosophy and practices incorporate the Quaker values of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, service, and stewardship of the earth into the lives of its students and faculty on a daily basis.
This unique intersection allows our students to excel not only academically and extracurricularly, but also fosters confident, resilient, and globally-minded leaders in relevant issues affecting the world at large.

As a leader in all-girls education since 1884, Lincoln School is an independent college preparatory school for girls in kindergarten through grade 12, with a co-ed early childhood program for infancy through pre-kindergarten.
Lincoln's rigorous curriculum educates and prepares students to be leaders and ready to face the challenges and opportunities in an ever-changing world. Passionate, dedicated faculty both challenge and support every student.
As an all-girls school, Lincoln has the luxury of focusing solely on the needs of girls, both academic and social-emotional well being.
Our alumnae often say "Lincoln is where I found my voice and learned how to use it."
