Special Projects – Application Deadline Extended!


Do you have a great idea for something that would benefit the Lincoln students, but just need some money to make it happen? If so, Special Projects could be the way to make it happen.

What are Special Projects?
  • Special Projects can be any project or item that will benefit the school
  • Special Projects can be submitted by parents, teachers or students of Lincoln. 
  • Special Projects are paid for by money that is raised from the annual Lincoln Auction after the PPT budget has been funded. 
  • Special projects funded in the past include: the Smart Boards in the classrooms, the "big toy" playground equipment, the Lincoln information sign, the popcorn popper, baseball bats and gloves – and many more.
Applications are available: 
  • Through the Lincoln PPT web site (http://www.rochester.k12.mn.us/school97ppt then click on the Special Projects section)  
  • Attached to the Lincoln Parent E-Files emails  
  • At the Lincoln Lincs blog www.lincolnlincs.blogspot.com 
  • Or directly from Mary Hansen at rmhansen2002@yahoo.com or Julie Wingert at djwingert@aol.com 

Stop by the Special Projects table during the Meet the Teacher Information Fair to find out more about Special Projects.
