Mission :

Lincoln County School District has two high schools, two middle schools, and four elementary schools in four separate communitieswhich are as far apart as 90 miles with some students being bused as many as 120 miles per day to school.School populations range from 65 students to 225 students.We are plagued by many common rural (frontier) county problems.Because of an overall low socioeconomic status, high unemployment rates, and high transiency rates,many of our students experience less than satisfying lives.Community populations range from affluent business people to welfare recipients with nothing.The educational base, although increasing, is low.We also face many situations imposed by our remoteness.We have ancient buildings/facilities, low funding, limited supplies, and few resources.Our diversity of size, school structure, and community make-up produces a wide variety of needs

We have been able to unify our schools through our Lincoln County School District Strategic Plan.Our plan was revisited and updated in July 2005.It has been approved and adopted by our Broad-Based Panel and the Lincoln County Board of School Trustees.Our eight schools have all completed their local plans.All schools are in various stages of development
