Lincoln Essentials

At Lincoln, we are strong because of our all-girls status, not in spite of it. Because girls’ education and well being is at the heart of all we do, students learn that speaking their minds is more valuable than playing it safe. They are taught to be confident, critical thinkers who carve out their place in a community built on trust and mutual respect. When girls are more focused on what they think than on how they look, there is nothing they can’t accomplish.

Bold minds begin at Lincoln. We embrace innovation, breaking new ground to provide a rigorous and vibrant learning environment that emphasizes intellectual challenge. Our exceptional faculty, most with advanced degrees, teach small classes that yield big results, like a 100% graduation rate to the top colleges in the country. And just as important, a foundation that prepares our students for futures full of meaning and success.

Dynamic and forward-thinking, Lincoln pushes the boundaries of education, providing outstanding opportunities girls simply cannot get anywhere else. Our partnerships with Brown, RISD, The Providence Steelyard, and Save the Bay mean that our classrooms are not confined to campus. On the turf, we are state champions. Starting with our youngest girls, coding is built into the curriculum’s DNA. In state-of-the-art labs, we engineer possibility. Simply put, Lincoln is a school where leaders are made.

At Lincoln, we’ve been at the forefront of all-girls education since 1884. Our Quaker values of peace and equity, commitment to social justice, and connected alumnae network, means our community is rooted in tradition while preparing for the possibilities of tomorrow. We relish our history, and encourage our girls to take risks and push limits to prepare for our ever-changing world.

Lincoln girls learn what it means to be a responsible global citizen in an interconnected world. With a focus on ethics and empathy, through Global Programs to India and Cuba, independent study or semesters abroad, our students know how to be comfortable with the uncomfortable by taking chances and learning without limit. Trail blazers and big thinkers, Lincoln girls explore their world to discover themselves.
