Lincoln Elementary School
Frankie l MacLean: My 3 older children all went to Lincoln, most of the teachers my children had were terrific. You cant help but get a few rotten apples here or there...But none the less, they all have wonderful memories of Lincoln. I have a 4th child who will soon be attending Kindergarten, I hope Mrs Chote is still teaching~ If not Im sure Ill get someone who was just as dedicated & cared about her students!
