2025-26 Student Assignments Released April 22, 2025

SPS released the new student assignments to all schools on Friday, April 22. At that time, Lincoln sent a version of the following welcome email to our incoming students with specific course registration information for current SPS 8th grade students and non-SPS students and students coming from other SPS high schools. Look for an email coming from lamiller@seattleschools.org.

If you receive a school assignment that you did not expect, please contact enrollment services, not Lincoln staff. Only enrollment services can correct or change enrollment assignments.

The following information is a combination of the emails that were sent out to the various student groups (SPS 8th, non-SPS, and students coming from other SPS high schools). It also applicable for any students assigned to Lincoln after April 22.

Welcome New Lincoln Lynx!

This first step in your high school journey will be to register for courses (more below). 

We look forward to building a strong partnership for success with our new Lynx students and their families. If you have not already done so, please visit the Information for Prospective Lynx and New Student Information webpages on the Lincoln website to find helpful information.

Not Attending? Let Us Know

If your plans change and you will NOT be attending Lincoln, please let us know by completing the following 2 steps:

1. Let Lincoln know:  Email lamiller@seattleschools.org  and include student’s full name AND the school they will be attending instead of Lincoln. 
2. Let SPS Enrollment know:  Complete the Not Attending Next Year (NANY) form to notify the district that you will not be accepting your assignment to Lincoln.  (This form will go live on April 22^nd.)

If you have received an incorrect school assignment, and your student should be assigned to a different SPS school, you will need to contact SPS Enrollment directly.

Watch the following PowerPoint presentation with important course registration information as well as graduation requirements, course registration and more.  Please also look at the Course Catalog on the Lincoln website for course descriptions, prerequisites and other information that will help you make thoughtful course selections.

Lincoln Athletics Registration Open for Fall 2025

The FinalForms portal to register for Lincoln athletics for all three athletics seasons is open now.  This is our only registration tool and is required for ALL new or returning student-athletes participating in a WIAA sport at Lincoln.  This includes signing up for Lincoln summer activities and all sports seasons during the 2025-2026 school year (fall, winter and spring).  Sign-up for any sport, but please note that student-athletes are limited to only one sport per season, per WIAA rules. 

This restriction, however, does not apply to summer participation.  Student-athletes will need an updated physical (within the last two years on the SPS form) and must be cleared by the athletic director before they are able to participate in any school sanctioned practice or competition.  Summer athletics begin as early as May 31st so make sure you are aware of the summer schedule for each sport you plan to participate in during the school year. 

Registration information and links to FinalForms can be found on the Lincoln Athletics Registration webpage.

Do not hesitate to reach out to our coaches (contact information on the Lincoln Athletics webpage) or the athletic director, Robin Ware, at rmware@seattleschools.org.
