Administration

My name is Christine Kim and I am the proud Principal of Lincoln Elementary School! I am very excited to join RBUSD and be a part of the Lincoln Lion family, where we will continue to foster and achieve academic success and a love of learning!

This school year marks my 19th year in education and every minute of it has brought me tremendous joy and many opportunities to grow in my education journey. Drawing upon my experiences in Special Education, Title 1, ELD, and Intervention programs, Technology, and various administrative roles across the different districts and schools that I have served, I gained tremendous insight along the way and am excited to work with our staff and family community in continuing and creating long-lasting success for all students.

Besides my passion in education, I want to share with you a little bit about myself. I grew up in the South Bay and have attended schools in nearby Torrance. Beach weather is the best! On the weekends, you might find me enjoying a cup of coffee at a coffee shop, finding the latest restaurants to try (and pretending to be a food critic), and taking leisurely hikes. I love spending time going on day trips and whenever possible, watch a musical and root for the Dodgers!

I am a firm believer that every single one of our students can achieve and succeed in their individual passions and endeavors. Here at Lincoln, the supportive commitment from everyone is what makes Lincoln Elementary an incredible special place to be, where students can thrive and reach their fullest potential. Together as collaborative partners between the school and home, we can continue the work of encouraging and guiding our students to be critical thinkers, creative explorers and learners, kind citizens, and to find happiness in their everyday learning.

Warmly,

Dr. Christine Kim
