Our Principal

I am thrilled to join the Lincoln Elementary School family for the 2025-2026 School Year!! 

With almost two decades in education, I bring a wealth of experience from schools that have diverse populations and needs. I began my career teaching 3rd through 5th grades and later served as an assistant principal at several schools before stepping into my current role. My educational background includes a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, and a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from the University of Central Florida. 

Beyond my professional life, I enjoy spending time with my family. We have just moved here from Central Florida and are excited for this new journey and getting reacquainted with South Central Wisconsin! I grew up in Edgerton, and after 19 years in Central Florida, have come back home. I have a 5 year old son that will start kindergarten this year, as a family, we like to be outdoors and are particularly looking forward to having 4 seasons! (My son may be the only one looking forward to the snow!)

I couldn’t be happier to continue my life’s work and my passion for educating students and creating lasting community relationships in order to continue to make Lincoln Elementary the place "Where Greatness Begins!"
 Sincerely,

Rachel Bynum
Principal, Lincoln Elementary
