Does your student need items in our Health Office? If you child needs health items such as an inhaler or EPI Pen, could you ensure you visit our Health Office please?


This is a friendly reminder that our students should arrive at Lincoln after 8:30 AM. Our staff are not on duty before this time and we want to be sure our students are safe! In addition, please make sure that you follow the dismissal plans you shared with staff at Backpack Night. Our staff appreciate the chance to prepare for the next day when our students are picked up in a timely manner.


2018 Cedar Falls Football Games in the UNI-Dome - Elementary students attending Cedar Falls football games in the UNI-Dome are expected to sit with their parent/guardian or an adult who is supervising them.  Elementary students should not be roaming the UNI-Dome unsupervised.


Can you help support our school through Shoparoo? This year we are excited to be partnering with a fun, free, and truly easy fundraiser called Shoparoo! Schools nationwide are earning money every year through Shoparoo and it’s a great opportunity for us to really make a difference this year! Shoparoo is school fundraising made easy: the free app turns pictures of your everyday shopping receipts into cash donations and sweepstakes entries for our school! Yes, it’s that simple. All you have to do is shop as you normally do, snap pictures of your receipts with the app, and earn money for Lincoln!

Please help us by getting started today:

1. Download the free Shoparoo app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store

2. Select our school from the list and start taking pictures of your receipts - shop anywhere, buy anything!

3. Please choose entire school rather then grade level – Thanks!

There’s no limit to how much money we can raise with Shoparoo - the more supporters, the more we will raise for our school. Check out shoparoo.com to learn more about this awesome app!

Thank you!
