The Lincoln Early Childhood Center is fortunate to supplement the Kindergarten half-day program with the Wrap Program at a fee of $400 per month ($4,000 per year). The Wrap Program is designed to extend the school day with enrichment activities including science experiments, math games, reading and writing centers, outdoor play, and free choice time. Wrap students remain at Lincoln School for lunch, which is provided from home. Students are frequently brought outdoors for play and exploration, so it is important they are appropriately dressed for the weather. Lincoln School’s Wrap Coordinators send home monthly newsletters recapping fun learning activities as well as providing notice of upcoming events.
Families will have the opportunity to request a spot in the tuition-based Lincoln School Wrap Program upon successful completion of the Kindergarten registration process for the 2026-2027 school year, including the submission of all required medical forms, no later than Thursday, February 19, 2026 prior to 12:00 p.m. Please take note of the following important dates:

Families will be contacted if their child's name is randomly selected off the waitlist and will be enrolled in the Wrap Program as spots become available throughout the spring and summer.
