Dear Lincoln Families,

We will send a separate communication this week regarding Hybrid attendance.

As always, I hope you have a fantastic week!

Take care,

Ms. Gordon

"At a time when life is so out of the ordinary, it's easy to focus on what we're missing, but you helped Drew think hard about all that she has and how incredibly lucky we are -- now and always, and inspired her to take some action, which will do everything we can to sustain".

- from Drew's mom to Mrs. Meisinger who leads the Lincoln Lions Book Club.

Mrs. Burries has been absolutely amazing this year for our son. I am so grateful for her guidance, patience, and ability to keep my son on track and engaged. Thank you Mrs Burries!

Mr. Domecq is an engaging teacher for Logan, offering encouragement in all sorts of ways. Logan was reluctant (read: "obstinately refused") to complete a reading assessment with Ms. Meglan. She was understanding, kind, and considerate with Logan through the iPad. Mr. Domecq spoke with Logan and they made a deal: Mr. Domecq, a balloon sculpture artist, would drop off a balloon creature to Logan over the weekend if Logan promised to do the rest of the reading assessment with Ms. Meglan. Just wanted to write to say thank you to both for tag-teaming this effort.

From our very first virtual contact from Ms. Cortez before the year even started through her preparation for hybrid learning, Ms. Cortez’s dedication and compassion for teaching despite all challenges has been truly awe inspiring. Like many first time virtual learners, our 2nd grade daughter has had her share of difficulties adjusting to learning through an iPad. Ms. Cortez has not only managed to connect students to learning through her creative lesson planning but also managed to connect them to each other via zoom break out rooms and fun sharing exercises. Whenever our little learner had a moment of struggle, Ms. Cortez was immediately there to help her directly, motivate her to excel, and keep us in the loop about the process. She has been a constant source of inspiration and a true teaching hero!

Ms. Yigsaw’s passion for teaching kindergarteners has been clear from day one of virtual learning. Our kindergarten son has had a difficult time adjusting to the synchronous virtual learning schedule and has needed a custom ramp up approach to keep him interested. Ms. Yigsaw has worked with us every step of the way and he’s now fully adjusted and even excited about e-learning each morning! Covid-19 may have stripped our son’s opportunity to learn in person from Ms. Yigsaw but we will always remember her non-stop excitement, dedication to her craft, and truly heroic role of inspiring probably the most difficult age of e-learners, thank you Ms. Yigsaw!
