Math

The Lincoln Public Schools Mathematics Program has four broad goals for students:

  • Students will become mathematical problem solvers.
  • Students will learn to value mathematics and the quantitative nature of our world.
  • Students will develop an understanding of fundamental mathematical concepts.
  • Students will acquire mathematical skills, including the ability to perform routine computations. At the secondary level, this includes traditional, but routine, symbolic manipulation.
