Lincoln Academy began in 1997 with one class each of K-6. Our seventh and eighth-grade classes were added in 2006 and 2007, respectively. In June of 2013, we purchased the present site on Oak Street, which we currently occupy.

Lincoln Academy is a Jeffco Public School. Tuition is not charged for families enrolling in K-8th grades. PreK does charge tuition but financial assistance is available through UPK Colorado and will cover the cost of half-day tuition.
