The Options Program at Lincoln Elementary School provides a unified model for grades K-5 that respects how children learn and views learning as a collaborative effort of staff, students and parents. Attributes of the Options Program include:
-
Social and emotional growth, and academic growth are equally valued.
-
Children stay with the same teacher in multi-age classrooms for two years or more to support their learning and strengthen the family-school relationship.
-
Multiple intelligences, cooperation, social justice and sustainability are taught and practiced.
Parents are vital to sustaining the Options program and are involved in governance, as partners supporting learning in the classroom, enrichment activities, field trips, fund raising, and social events.
