East St. Louis Lincoln High School

East St. Louis Lincoln High School was then established in 1909. Lincoln High served the town and area residents of East St. Louis for nearly 90 years. It was in the late 1990s that talks of closing East St. Louis Lincoln and consolidating all students to the East St. Louis Senior High School program took place. It was in 1998 that this movement became effective.

The Lincoln High School building was used as a grade school in East St. Louis for a short time after the high school closed. The former Lincoln High School building is no longer used as a school.[1]
