Lincoln Montessori11/7/2019 • Norfolk, NE • Lincoln Montessori, a public Montessori school in Norfolk, Nebraska, was named a 2019 National Blue Ribbon School. It is an extremely prestigious honor awarded to only the top schools in the country that are identified as “Exemplary High Performing.”

Lincoln Montessori serves 134 students kindergarten through fourth grade but has plans to expand and add classrooms in the coming years. This is the twelfth time a Montessori school has earned a Blue Ribbon Award. The last time was in 2016 when schools in Dallas, Texas and Okemos, Michigan were recognized.
