Abraham Lincoln Elementary School was built at its present location (Lincoln Avenue and West Peoria Street) in 1895. The original building was a large two-story structure facing Lincoln Avenue; a small building for the kindergarten was in the rear. The Board purchased a house and lot adjoining the school site in November 1901, and started the kindergarten class there in January of 1902.
