We work together to instill a lifelong love for learning in all our students

Lincoln Elementary School is focused on educating balanced students, providing them with a child centered innovative curriculum that meets different abilities, interests and needs. We foster the development of global citizens by providing them with a resourceful, caring, learning environment. As a community, we work together to instill a lifelong love for learning in all our students.

Elementary Curriculum

Project based learning encourages higher order thinking skills, innovation and creativity.

Students learn to think and find different solutions to problems through exploration, observation, description, and prediction. The curriculum provides students the opportunity to take actions that involve knowledge of the world and the appreciation of differences.

In order to adequately prepare students for a smooth transition into the IB Diploma Program, they are exposed to linguistic and trans-disciplinary concepts, skills, strategies and attitudes that are consistent with the learner profile. The core competencies include reflective practices: an ability to show initiative, critically evaluate one’s own work and the work of others, reflect on progress and set goals.

"We believe in creating a holistic, student-centered approach to learning in a challenging environment where students feel safe, loved, inspired, and owners of their learning process. Students acquire skills, practice them and apply them, becoming empathetic changemakers. Student’s minds and hearts understand the value of social and environmental responsibility, as they immerse in design thinking processes. We believe this is only possible when we work together as a community.”
