Principal's Corner
Dear Lincoln Middle School Students and Families,
Welcome to a new school year at Lincoln Middle School! I hope you and your family enjoyed a safe, restful and fun-filled summer. As we begin another exciting year together, I am thrilled to welcome back our returning Tigers and extend a warm welcome to those joining our Lincoln family for the very first time.
This year's theme, "Level Up to Build a Legacy of Excellence," reminds us that every day is an opportunity to grow, improve, and become the very best version of ourselves. Whether you're stepping into middle school for the first time or preparing for your final year at Lincoln, I encourage you to challenge yourself, embrace new opportunities, and strive for excellence in everything you do.
At Lincoln Middle School, we are committed to helping every student succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. Our teachers and staff have worked hard to prepare engaging lessons, welcoming classrooms, and meaningful experiences that will inspire curiosity, creativity, and confidence throughout the year.
As Tigers, we are guided by The Tiger Way. The Tiger Way is more than a set of expectations--it is the standard we live by every day. It means demonstrating respect, taking responsibility, making positive choices, showing kindness, working hard, and supporting one another. When we choose The Tiger Way, we create a school culture where everyone feels safe, valued, and empowered to succeed.
This year, I encourage every student to:
Level Up by setting high goals and giving your best effort every day.
Build positive relationships with classmates, teachers, and staff.
Follow The Tiger Way by showing respect, responsibility, integrity, and kindness.
Get involved in clubs, athletics, fine arts, and school activities.
Celebrate your progress while encouraging others to reach their goals.
Families are an essential part of our success. Thank you for trusting us with your child's education and for partnering with us throughout the school year. Your encouragement, communication, and involvement make a tremendous difference in helping our students thrive.
Together, we will Level Up to Build a Legacy of Excellence--one lesson, one challenge, one success, and one act of kindness at a time. I know this school year will be filled with incredible accomplishments, lasting memories, and opportunities for every Tiger to shine.
On behalf of our entire faculty and staff, thank you for being part of the Lincoln Middle School family. We are excited to welcome you back and look forward to an outstanding year ahead.
Let's Level Up, embrace The Tiger Way, and Build a Legacy of Excellence--together!
With Tiger Pride,

With each new school year comes the opportunity for fresh starts, new relationships, and incredible learning, and this year is no exception.

At the heart of my work is a simple belief: when students feel safe, heard, and challenged, they will rise.
Throughout the year, I will be focused on fostering a culture where every student is encouraged to dream big, where staff feel supported in their work, and where families are welcomed as essential partners in the journey. I am also committed to promoting a positive and inclusive environment, where every student feels a true sense of belonging at Lincoln.
