This is a friendly reminder that our school and breakfast opens each morning at 8:30. Students should not be dropped off at school or on our playgrounds before this time. In addition, we are asking for families to help our students build independence by letting them walk to their classroom on their own.


This is a friendly reminder for our students who may be frightened by dogs: All dogs on our playground must be on a leash and if possible, please leave them at home.


Kindergarten Parents - if you would like your student(s) to have their vision screened, please return the permission forms to their teachers. Thank you!


Backpack Program - Lincoln Elementary is partnering with the Northeast Iowa Food Bank to provide the BackPack Program to students during the 2019-2020 school year.  The program begins in September and will continue throughout the school year. The BackPack Program is a free program that provides kid-friendly, non-perishable food for students most in need to eat over weekends and breaks when school meals are not available and there may be little or no food to eat.  Please carefully consider your family’s economic status and determine if this program is something needed by your child(ren). If the BackPack Program is something your family depends upon, please complete the registration form.  


Student Directory - PALS (Parents and Lincoln School) offers our students and families an opt in directory to allow families to share information for invitations and play dates outside of school. If you would like to join or update information, please use these directions. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Bryant!


Cedar Falls Home Football Games Elementary students must be accompanied and supervised by adult chaperones during the game. They should be sitting in the stands and not hanging out or running around in the concourse area.
