About the Project

This project is the second part of the Lincoln High School modernization project. It includes voluntary seismic improvements to the east buildings on the campus, added in 1959. It also includes improvements to the gymnasium, performing arts center/auditorium, and Career & Technical Education classroom.

The first part of the Lincoln modernization was completed in 2019, allowing the school to open as a new attendance area high school in Fall 2019.

There are two phases to this project. 

Phase 2A: Gymnasium 

  • Voluntary seismic upgrades
  • ADA-compliant accessibility upgrades
  • Locker room renovation
  • Roof replacement

Phase 2B: Auditorium, Performing Arts Center, and CTE

  • Voluntary seismic upgrades
  • ADA-compliant accessibility upgrades
  • Interior upgrades
  • Roof replacement

Students, school leadership, and teachers participated in the schematic design process for phases 2A and 2B.
