Please join us for Back to School Night! Our staff will give you a broad overview of course content, classroom expectations, assessment practices and academic supports.

We will start in the gym with a welcome message and overview of Lincoln’s IB mission and school climate goals. Parent will have an opportunity to learn about a variety of athletic teams, clubs, student unions, activities, and opportunities for school and community engagement.

If you are a parent of a senior, you are invited to attend a 30-minute Counselor Presentation “The Lincoln College Application Process” in Room 169. The presentation will start at 5:30 PM. This presentation is ideal for parents who would like to learn the details of how their student will manage the college application process at Lincoln and will contain the same information your student received at the Senior FLEX presentation by the counselors.

A few reminders for your planning purposes:

·         Plan for public parking - there is no onsite parking for visitors

·         Use the attached BTSN Schedule to record your student’s classes

·         Use the attached LHS School Map to find your way around the building that night

·         Verify you have access to ParentVue. If not, please contact Cynthia Roberts at croberts@pps.net to get access.

We are looking forward to seeing you at Back to School Night! Please do not feel you need to bring your student. Our teachers are here to introduce themselves to you as a partner supporting your student’s academic success at Lincoln. We are sure you will be as excited for this school year as we are.

LHS is one of the West’s oldest and most celebrated public secondary schools. Most events will occur in Portland – but some might be in far flung places around the world, wherever LHS alumni live!

L150 will include students, parents, alumni and the larger community. Alumni will be reminded of their affinity with our school. We all will celebrate and work towards a more just and equitable world, in the spirit of our academic and civic heritage.

Our Goals

To hold a celebration that is just, inclusive and participatory;

To have fun and renew friendships;

To build a strong base for excellence in the next 150 years;

To assist in the “Lincoln Rebuild” to prepare for the future;

To carry forward the Cardinal Spirit of inspired learning to make a better world for all.

To have fun!

As she ushers a visitor into her office, Kristina Howard says to excuse the boxes and bags and plain walls. “I haven’t really had time to unpack or decorate,” the principal of Ockley Green Middle Schools says.

The first step toward your children getting an education is getting them to school. In Portland Public Schools, there are a number of options.

Metropolitan Learning Center is believed to be the oldest continually operating alternative school in the United States, and this year the K-12 school hit a milestone number: 50 years.

Parents, educators and community members who have ideas about public education will have an opportunity to share them with a bipartisan group of state lawmakers at an event at Madison High School.
