The Lincoln Lightning
"Your SPARK of information!"
November 5th, 2021
This week was wonderful at Lincoln School with so much fun and positive energy! We continue to grow and learn together as a learning community. We've been focusing on positive ways to communicate with one another and are exploring this through book talks, playing board games, math task discussions, and participating in collaborative STEM design challenges. We want to encourage our students to be independent and creative thinkers while at the same time sharing their thoughts and ideas with one another. We need to work together, celebrating our differences at the same time we are finding connections.
As always, please contact me with any questions, concerns, or ideas. Have a great weekend and remember to turn your clocks back!
Be well,

Mask Reminder
This is a friendly reminder that students should arrive at school each day with their own mask or other face covering. Each school building maintains a supply of masks; however, these are not intended to be a student’s primary face covering each day. Please remind your student to bring their mask (and a spare) or other face covering to school with them daily.
Volunteers/Visitors
In an effort to make Lincoln the safest possible environment for our children, we ask that all visitors and volunteers please sign in at the office (Driver’s License required) and always wear a nametag identifying yourself as a visitor, including volunteering on our playground and our outdoor classroom. All staff members have been directed to ask adults not wearing proper identification to return to the office. We know you agree that safety must be our number one concern.
Also, we request that all volunteers and chaperones complete a background check verification form. We no longer use paper applications. In compliance with board policies, our district began this procedure a few years ago. We’re sorry for the inconvenience but this practice ensures the safest environment for our children. The completed background checks are valid for three years.
Breakfast Served 8:00 - 8:15am
