Abraham Lincoln High School (Brooklyn)

Abraham Lincoln High School is a public high school at 2800 Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn, New York City. Operated by the New York City Department of Education, the school was built in 1929. The current principal is Ari A. Hoogenboom.

It was built during the Great Depression, and to save money, one set of blueprints was used for Lincoln and other high schools in New York City, including Bayside High School, Samuel J. Tilden High School, John Adams High School, and Grover Cleveland High School.

The school features five gymnasiums, an outdoor football and track and field, a swimming pool, a photography studio, an animal science lab, an office classroom and an auditorium.
