A special thanks to all our Lincoln Legacy Bicentennial Schools! Over 500 schools participated in the program to provide American youth, which now embraces young people from many corners of the globe, an understanding of the role Lincoln’s legacy played in shaping the United States.
Your support helped us reach thousands of students across the country and discuss the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln on his birthday.
Participating schools received a certificate from the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission to display proudly in an appropriate place. The deadline to sign up for the Lincoln Legacy School Recognition Program was August 21, 2009!
Check out the lesson plans, suggested activities, and additional resources for ideas.

The Lincoln Legacy Schools Recognition Program is made possible with support from the History Channel.
