Dear Lincoln School Community,
Today, our hallways were transformed into “Camp Lincoln” as we celebrated our annual Theme Day! The day was filled with activities and assemblies centered around teamwork and service in keeping with the school theme of “Better Together.” It was an unforgettable day and students, staff, and volunteers had an amazing experience. Special thanks to our Theme Day chairs, Mrs. Fox and Mrs. Madigan, the Decorating Committee chairs, Mrs. Miano and Mrs. Powers, and the Luncheon chairs, Mrs. Korinis and Mrs. Puzio, for all of their hard work and creativity in planning and organizing the day. Thank you also to our staff and parent volunteers for their efforts in creating a memorable day for our students. We are already looking forward to Theme Day 2024 with the theme of…. “Great Happens Here!”
As the end of the school year is rapidly approaching, we are busy inventorying our Media Center. Mrs. Husstege and I ask that all library books are returned by Monday, June 5th. Please contact Mrs. Husstege with any questions. Thank you for your cooperation.
