Lincoln High School in San Leandro is a specialized **continuation high school** designed to provide an alternative educational environment for students who are not thriving in a traditional comprehensive high school setting. By offering a smaller, more personalized atmosphere, the school focuses on re-engaging students who may have fallen behind in credits or who require a more flexible academic structure to succeed. The curriculum is tailored to meet state graduation requirements while emphasizing credit recovery and individualized support to help students get back on track toward a high school diploma.

Located on Teagarden Street, the school prioritizes a supportive culture that addresses both the academic and social-emotional needs of its students.
