As another calendar year draws to a close, I’m filled with gratitude—for our scholars, for our families, and for the strong network of community partners who support every step of our journey. Our Beloit and surrounding community partners are truly inspiring and they are always willing to go the extra mile to support our scholars.  We have an amazing network of people who care deeply about the success of our scholars and our future.

Every month at The Lincoln Academy, we shine a spotlight on a character virtue that reflects the kind of people we strive to become. Gratitude is our focus this month. It is more than a word we teach. It is a way of seeing the world; an appreciation that becomes the foundation for a happy and choice-filled life.

TLA stands as proof that when charter schools are well-designed, community-rooted, and mission-driven, they can set a new standard for public education. Charter renewal depends on academic results, financial responsibility, and organizational success. This performance-driven model ensures that every decision is made with scholar outcomes in mind.
