Lincoln Park Middle School

Lincoln Park Middle School is located in Newark, and welcomed its founding cohort of 5th graders in August 2019. Rising 5th graders who attended Lincoln Park Elementary School (K-4) have the opportunity to attend our middle school for 5th grade and continue to 8th grade each year thereafter. All students have the opportunity to continue on to Lincoln Park High School (9-12).

Partnering with families is vital to ensuring the success of our students and schools. We recognize that we cannot fulfill our mission of preparing students to enter, succeed in, and graduate from college without the support of our families. Family events are held at each campus at least once every two months. Flyers and messages inviting families to upcoming meetings and events are sent home with students. Food and child care are always provided.

In addition to campus events, North Star Academy is committed to maintaining frequent communication with our families by offering the following: back-to-school nights and family potluck dinners, campus newsletters and postcards, family conferences, monthly progress reports, end-of-quarter report cards, and more.

Parent Council

Parents have been active in all phases of the school, from its founding to its governance. The Parent Council is an organization made up of North Star Parents. Each fall parents at each school elect their Parent Council officers. Visit North Star Academy’s Family Resource and Policies page for additional information.
