Lincoln's Latest

As we are nearing the end of the year, it is important for all students to finish the year strong! For seniors, graduation is only six weeks away. For seniors that need assistance with completing their High School and Beyond Plan (a graduation requirement) or their Verification of Acceptance at Next Institution (VANI), please see Mr. Jamila Jones.

AP tests begin this week. Please encourage your students to get the appropriate amount of sleep so they are well rested when taking spring exams.

I've included some videos in this week's newsletter. There are so many great things happening at Lincoln!
