Our "Old Kinder Ladies" Celebrating the 100th Day of School!
Principal's Office
Here is our Roadrunner Weekly for the week of February 3rd through February 7th. We hope everyone has had a good weekend so far and that you football fans out there enjoy the Super Bowl - go, Niners! I wanted to begin by inviting everyone to our district-wide Measure D information night to be held this Monday night, February 3, 2020, at 7:00 pm at The Lincoln Library at Twelve Bridges Willow Room. The address is 485 Twelve Bridges Drive, Lincoln, CA 95648. Measure D was placed on the March ballot to fund a Lincoln aquatics center, athletic fields, and additional library parking. A flyer is attached below that includes details about the meeting. This meeting is being held to give an overview of the measure and answer any questions.
Our Boosterthon Fun Run culminated this past Friday with our Fun Run! Thanks to all of you who were able to come out and cheer on our kids - they did an AMAZING job! (Pictures can be seen below.) To this point, we've raised just over $10,000 towards our $15,000 goal! If you haven't had a chance to pledge or send out your info to friends and family yet, you can still do so up through Thursday by loggin on to funrun.com. Thanks for your continued support of our school. We take great pride in the kindness and generosity of our First St. community!
We have also begun rehearsal for our first Starstruck Showcase dance performance! The show will take place on March 5th, so mark your calendars!
As a weekly reminder, i-Ready is an important skill builder that our kids can access at school and at home. Our teachers try to build in time during the school day for some practice, but we also encourage your child to continue using it at home also as the program recommends a minimum of 45 minutes per subject, per week to help build math and ELA skills.
Lastly, please check out our staff websites to keep current on homework and class events.
Have a great week!
Mr. Cubias

"Parenting the Love & Logic Way is Coming to First St. in English & Spanish!

• Set enforceable limits
• Avoid enabling and begin empowering
• Help kids learn from mistakes rather than repeating them
• And much more!
