It was recently reopened after a school closure and with the hard work of caring parents and support from the community has re-established its library and many school functions like a Fall Festival and Parent Teacher Organization. In the 2011-2012 school year, it also added a Dual Language Program where Spanish speaking and English speaking children learn together to become fluent in both languages. These programs are highly sought after in the Bay Area and have proven results for student success, bilingualism and biliteracy. Other similar programs have long wait lists and the growing popularity will no doubt make this school a destination of parents looking to raise culturally aware and bilingual children who will go on to take a third language in high school. The school also offers preschool in English and a Spanish Immersion option. If you are considering Lincoln, I recommend contacting the principal for a tour and ask to observe in a classroom to make a decision that best suits your child and family. We have been at Lincoln for almost one full school year and it's been a fun year and I see my child has grown so much in his development. UPDATE Fall 2013 We are about to start our third year with Lincoln and I'm very pleased with my son's progress in the Immersion program. I've gotten to know many teachers on the staff (Standard English Instruction and Dual Immersion) and I have to say you can't go wrong by sending your student here regardless of what path you choose. In Spring 2012 the Junior League along with parent volunteers revamped the school garden and courtyard area. There is an overall great community feel at this school. Of course not everyone is happy, but as with anything, you can't please everyone. To be sure this is a great school, I encourage interested parents to meet the principal and take a school tour and visit a classroom.

We taught special education and we loved the students and we are devoted to the field of special education. What the district was doing with special education students seemed illegal. I could just move forward and say nothing since we escaped the corruption but it is worth mentioning and maybe the more people that complain the sooner changes will be made. First, there were some wonderful people that worked there and I want to be clear that it was a special education problem. There were teachers and staff we thought were nice and fair and effective. Much anger and unrest was felt and there was a team that was reporting to the new Super about all the injustice. I wrote to the Superintendent as requested by a staff member and a parent but no response was given by him. The glaring injustice was in the special education department. There was no SDC class at Prunedale, and RSP teachers were strapped with a disrespectful principal that seemed to have no interest in special education. I read through numerous IEPS and many of the students in RSP had come from an SDC class. The district was poor or spent money on the wrong things and special education was underfunded. SDC students belong in SDC classes and not thrown into RSP because they cannot afford an SDC class. We were told that they could not find teachers because it was too expensive to live in the area, however they treated the teachers they hired poorly and there was a huge turnover. One special education teacher I worked with quit by November due to a medical leave caused by stress. Sadly, the students are the ones that suffer in the end.
