Lincoln Weekly Update and Learning Goals for the week of April 20th
Lincoln Families - Happy Friday! We hope you had a positive week and have included the learning templates for the week of April 20th below. With our Governor’s announcement this afternoon to close school for the remainder of the school year, we are very sad that we will not be returning to school. While we cannot control the pandemic, we can continue to partner with our families. We will continue to provide weekly learning opportunities and connections from our staff to our students and families. If you need something, please ask! Please be safe and we will look forward to the time when we can be together again at Lincoln!
Our continuous learning templates for the week of April 20th are below:
Basic Needs – Attached you will find information related to various food programs that are provided by the school district as well as other community organizations to assist with basic needs. For those who are participating in the food program at Holmes, North Cedar or Orchard Hill, the USDA has now modified guidelines so that caregivers can pick up meals for individuals under the age of 18 without those individuals being present. Please feel free to reach out to us if we can be of assistance with other needs.
In addition, Blue Barn BBQ is offering free kids lunches! Please go to their website (https://www.bluebarnbbq.com/s/order) to make your order. Also, if you aren’t in need of lunches and would like to support their cause, please support this cause!
Kindergarten Registration - we will ask all incoming Kindergarten families to complete the following registration form. We will soon be creating a video to share information about our school and the upcoming school year. We will be seeking a future date for families to visit our school when it is safe to do so!
- We have a virtual Spirit Week planned for next week! Please feel free to share and encourage our students to participate! We will be posting reminders to our social media, please share your pictures!
Would you like to help us build a life sized Jenga for Lincoln? We know you may be seeking activities at home and we are working to build a life sized Jenga for use at future school events. Lincoln PALS (Parents and Lincoln School) have created 54 pieces for our students and families to decorate. If interested, we ask that you paint, decorate or color (without attaching anything)! We will arrange a pickup time as well as a drop off opportunity with the families interested. Once collected, we will seal them for use at Lincoln! Sounds pretty amazing, right? If interested, please email Mr. Bryant and he will keep a list and communicate both pickup and dropoff.
PALS Is Collecting Hy Vee receipts! If you would like to bring your Hy Vee receipts to a box on the porch of 804 West 13th Street. We are able to use these to receive a check from Hy Vee each year that supports our students and staff!
Do you have pictures from your time learning at home that you would like to share for possibly inclusion in our yearbook? If so, please email them to Mrs. Kuehner (amy.kuehner@cfschools.org)
Our playground equipment is closed to public use to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Thanks for following this district and community directive to keep everyone healthy!
Please continue to monitor your email, visit the District and our school website and social media channels for regular updates and connections to learning activities. The health and safety of our students, employees, and community is always our top priority. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time. We will continue to move through this together, support each other, and do all we can to support you and your families.
