Lincoln School (Rock Island, Illinois)

Lincoln School was a historic building located in Rock Island, Illinois, United States.

Mary Platt, who taught ninth grade, was named the school's first principal.

Shortly after that ninth grade was moved to Rock Island High School.

By order of the City Council, the building was slated to be torn down on July 1, 2012, unless an organization could save it before then.

The City voted to place a tarp over the leaking roof to allow for some of the building to be salvaged, but this was never completed.

The hipped roof rose 41 feet (12 m) at the ridgeline and included cross gables on three sides of the building.
