Where Curiosity and Connection are One
The Lower School welcomes applications from boys and girls for Nursery and Pre-Kindergarten and for girls from Kindergarten to Grade 5. Many of the foundations in our Little School extend seamlessly into academic year offerings for Nursery and Pre-Kindergarten aged-children.
Kindergarten is where Lincoln's girls' education begins, and students, from Kindergarten through Grade 5, eagerly explore, question, wonder, and reflect. They might collect and examine sea life along the shores of Narragansett Bay, or problem-solve through an engineering design challenge. As students progress through the grades, they might analyze issues of social justice; for example, students study the Holocaust in 5th Grade. Experiences like these create critical and passionate thinkers who possess solid foundational skills.
Our students learn to face and embrace problems, to be leaders, and to act as caring and cooperative classmates. Together, we celebrate their accomplishments and support their exploration, fostering a sense of community, camaraderie, and pride.
A Dynamic & Academic Community
- Students of every age have opportunities to learn what it means to be a community member, a learner, and a leader.
- Our Quaker values of Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equality, and Stewardship (SPICES) are the foundation of learning, anchoring academic exploration in common core values.
- Academically, our program provides a strong foundation in literacy, math, science, social studies, world languages, and STEAMx while offering signature programs to encourage active exploration of the world around them.
- On the playground, in a classroom, out in nature, and on the Bay, our teachers are always finding ways to help students make connections with the world and the way they see it.
