New this year is the

events at school that you photograph. We now have a space for you to

classroom party or play and have some great pictures, please submit
them.

The completion of the locker
painting project is looking spectacular. Thank you to all of the
students, parents, grandparents and staff that contributed their talents
to making this fun project happen.
Special thanks to Kimsue for heading up this project. This idea came from an Uppers’ student and it was fun to watch a great idea come to action to improve our school!
- We are finalizing plans for a Lincoln Anniversary Event to celebrate the 40th year. Details will be coming out in the near future for this spring “homecoming” event.
- Students are learning a great deal and showing their knowledge and skills in a variety of ways. We welcome parents to continue coming in to Lincoln to see the many great things happening every day!
Hoping 2016 will be an incredible year for you and your family!
