With about 2 teachers, Lincoln School TAOEP has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.

The **Lincoln School**, located at 960 Royce Ave in Joliet, Illinois, serves as a specialized educational site operating under the **TAOEP (Truant Alternative and Optional Education Program)**. This program is designed to support students who are at risk of academic failure, chronic absenteeism, or dropping out of the traditional school system. By providing an alternative learning environment, the school focuses on re-engaging students through more personalized instruction and targeted support services tailored to meet the unique challenges of the local student population.
The core mission of the Lincoln School TAOEP is to provide a bridge for students to either return to their home high schools or successfully complete their graduation requirements in a smaller, more supportive setting. The facility operates with a focus on credit recovery, behavioral intervention, and building the essential social-emotional skills necessary for long-term success. By maintaining a structured yet flexible approach, the staff works to remove the barriers that prevent students from thriving in a conventional classroom, helping them remain on track toward earning their high school diploma and preparing for post-secondary opportunities.
