Lincoln Elementary Home

Thank you volunteers, students, parents and teachers for participation in Jog-a-Thon on Wednesday! We lucked out with the weather and the kids had a fantastic time (see attached pictures). Special thanks to our PTA volunteers who showed amazing flexibility with the start, stops of the weather. So far we have raised $27,000 for the Lincoln PTA! This money goes to field trips, school wide assemblies, reading materials, family nights, reading materials, the AR program, and Science Family Night. We are VERY close to our goal of $30,000 and there are still envelopes and money coming in. Not too late to submit! If we reach out school goal, we will celebrate with a Glow in the Dark Dance Party (back by popular demand from last year)!

Mr. J suffered two fatal challenges because Lincoln successfully achieved 375 Walkers at Pier-to-Pier and reached 100% PTA Membership. In November, he braved the rollerblade challenge and survived the entire day on rollerblades with absolutely no clue how to do so. And in December, every student and staff member threw a water balloon at that poor soul in celebration of 100% PTA membership two years running! Well-done, Lincoln!

Lincoln Elementary met its goal of 375 Walkers by registering over 400 walkers for Pier-to-Pier fundraiser. That is the second year of making our goal! This also marks the 3rd fundraiser goal met for the school year: RBEF, Pier-to-Pier, and PTA Membership. Nice job, Lincoln...we are moving fast! The Pier-to-Pier funds will be utilized for staff development (Eureka training), academic intervention (Leveled Literacy Intervention), and modernization (playground upgrades...including GaGa Ball). We plan to put these dollars directly into the classroom to improve our student achievement. Thank you community!
