In the fall of 1907, Lincoln High School opened in the Wallingford neighborhood. It had thirty classrooms, a study hall, and a single gymnasium. There were so many students in the area that the school was already too small when it opened. After several additions and 74 years of service, Lincoln High School closed in 1981. Since then, the Lincoln building has been used as a community center and temporary school building.
