Show Your Support Of Our Students And Team Lincoln! We are excited to offer yard signs to show your support of Lincoln, our “graduating” 6th grade students and the health care workers in our community! This will also support PALS (Parents and Lincoln School)! A true win-win! Thank you for considering this opportunity!
Would You Like To Join Us For Yoga? Dear Parents - We were sad to stop our daily yoga practice and want to offer to all ages, whoever is willing to join us. Please fill out this form to sign up! Yoga will begin this Monday (May 4) from 10:30-10:40 and will be offered daily. Once you fill in the form we will send the zoom invite. Hope to see you on Zoom! Mrs. Kowalski, Mrs. Droe, and Mrs. Simpson
Join Us For Ukuzoomie! Dear Parents - If you'd like to join Ukuzoomle (zoom + ukulele), please submit this form. Ukuzoomle will be from 4:30-5:00 every Friday in May beginning Friday May 8. A ukulele is not even necessary if you just want to join us and sing from the comfort and isolation of your home. You will need to be muted so you can sing as loud as you want and won't bother any of us. It will be more fun with a ukulele-no one will even be able to tell if you aren't playing the "right" chords. So come one, come all and join the craziness. The name says it all...ukuzoomle!
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 51 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!
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.
