Uniforms
The green-and-blue plaid kilt (or jumper) has long been a symbol of attendance at Lincoln School. The jumper and kilt are worn with pride, and signify our belief in the value of simplicity and equity.

PE Attire: Kindergarteners do not change clothes for PE, but they do need a pair of PE sneakers that stay at school.
