About Lincoln Charter School

Located in the City of York, Lincoln Charter School is a public, tuition-free charter school serving students in grades K–6 from nine school districts across York County, Pennsylvania. For more than two decades, Lincoln has been rooted in a commitment to educating the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally—within a tight-knit school community where relationships matter and students are truly known.

Families choose Lincoln not just for its academic foundation, but for an environment where students feel safe, supported, and valued. With a culturally and linguistically diverse community and communication designed to reduce barriers and build trust, Lincoln creates a place where all families can feel welcomed, respected, and connected.
