File:Lincoln High School graduating class, Seattle, 1919 (MOHAI 12959).jpg

In the fall of 1907, Lincoln High School opened in the Wallingford neighborhood, at Interlake Avenue North and North 43rd Street. 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. In 1919, the high school's teams were number one in the city in football, baseball, and tennis This photo shows the Lincoln High School graduating class of 1919 standing on the front steps of the school.
