Welcome to the 2011-12 school year! If you are new to Lincoln, we welcome you into the great Lincoln community. One of the many things that makes Lincoln stand out is the family volunteer support system.
Volunteers in Education, or ViE, links parents to the volunteer opportunities that we have available at Lincoln, and within the district, to support our children’s learning. Some of those opportunities include:
· helping a teacher in the classroom
· leading after school activities
· being a media helper
· helping students with math and reading
This year, we are also encouraging grandparents to be involved as volunteers as well as parents. What a wonderful way to be a part of your child or grandchild’s education!
The ViE coordinators will be at Meet the Teacher day in the gym to talk further with you about the opportunities available for volunteering at Lincoln. We have an interest inventory that will be coming to your inbox via email to print and bring with you to Meet the Teacher day. If you did not get this copy, one will be available for you to complete that day. We ask that every parent fill this out if you think at any time during the year you will be volunteering at the school in any way. (This includes field trips or take-home projects.)
We look forward to seeing you at Meet the Teacher day!
ViE Coordinators,
