Established in 1954, Lincoln School is an independent, coeducational day school, providing a North American college-preparatory curriculum for students in preschool and prekindergarten to grade 12. Lincoln School has a long-established tradition of student-centered education founded in best practices and offers small class sizes, an outstanding international faculty and support staff, and a community-oriented learning environment that fosters the well-being of the whole student. The school year consists of 180 days, which are divided into two semesters. The first semester runs from August to December, and the second semester runs from January to early June.

This is intended to provide general information. Prospective users of the schools may wish to inquire further of A/OPR/OS or contact the school directly for more specific and up-to-the-minute information. Information and statistics are current as of September 2022 and provided by the school.

NOTE: School situations can change quickly, particularly as schools face cutbacks to learning support programs due to the pandemic, unrest, and economic uncertainty. For the most current information, work with the REO and school. Information in this document was collected by the Department of State’s Office of Overseas Schools directly from the school in fall 2022 and shows the availability of services rather than an assessment of the quality of the services. The profile is intended as a jumping off point for a conversation with the REO and school to understand the best fit for your child. Definitions may vary school to school.
