The New Lincoln School was born under remarkable circumstances, flourished during

remarkable times, created remarkable changes in the history & philosophy of education,

and left a remarkable legacy of individuals & ideas. In June of 1988 the experiment-

adventure called the “New Lincoln School” closed its doors. Those of us who partici-

pated in this experiment-adventure, and were forever changed by it, have within us the

understanding that education can reach and achieve goals vastly beyond the sad

stumblings of today. Our intentions are both to remember and to build upon the accom-

plishments of the New Lincoln School.
