Lincoln School is an independent Quaker girls' school in Providence, Rhode Island, whose Quaker values have shaped its teaching since 1884. It teaches girls from kindergarten to grade 12, while its early learning programmes are co-educational. Its mission is to educate girls to embrace the opportunities and responsibilities of full citizenship, guided by the Quaker principles of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality and stewardship.

Tuition from kindergarten to grade 12 includes lunch, field trips and class retreats, and need-based financial aid is available. Lincoln accepts international high-school-aged girls who need an I-20 visa document; it is not a boarding school, but a partner organisation arranges homestays.
