About Abraham Lincoln School

Abraham Lincoln School feels like a gentle place where kids settle in without too much pressure. The math proficiency here usually sits around the middle range, sometimes a bit above depending on the class and the year. Teachers manage groups that feel moderate in size, more like a circle of kids rather than a large crowd. Compared to Fairmount School or Vine Street School, this one feels slightly quieter, almost softer in its daily flow. Families appreciate that calm tone because it helps younger students ease into learning. Renting a three bedroom home around this area can be a little expensive for Bangor, but people still choose the neighborhood for its easy routines and small community feel. Students eventually head to Bangor High School, which is known for guiding kids into practical careers like nursing support, local business roles, and skilled trades. Abraham Lincoln School reflects that grounded energy. Nothing overly polished, yet steady and caring. Teachers seem to remember small things about students, like who loves art or who needs a minute in the morning before warming up. It feels personal in a quiet way.
