Dear Lincoln School Community,
We had a wonderful first two days at Lincoln School, with students and staff reconnecting as a school family and our students becoming acclimated with their new grade levels. Students have adjusted well to the new school year, and are excited about being back together. Routines are being established, and a positive and supportive classroom community is being formed. Great job to all of our Lincoln Lions on a terrific start to the year!
As a reminder, the Wyckoff Education Foundation is hosting their second annual “Color Run” tomorrow at Eisenhower Middle School. Registration is still accepted tomorrow, beginning at 9:30 am, and the run begins at 11:00 am. I hope to see many of you there, where you can see me get “blasted” with color!
Please note that the Lincoln Back to School Night is scheduled for Tuesday, September 24th, beginning at 6:30 pm. Details on the evening will be shared soon.
Our District will be offering an online method as well as payment by check for yearly milk orders. Payment may be made by using PaySchools Central. If you are not already registered for PaySchools Central, please click here and follow the prompts. Please note that you will need your child’s 6-digit Student ID # which is located on the Parent Portal in Genesis next to your child’s picture. If you have difficulty logging on to the Genesis Parent Portal, please contact the Genesis Helpdesk at genesis@wyckoffps.org. Milk is offered to grades K-5 on a daily basis . You can purchase milk for the entire year. Milk will begin on Monday, September 16th. The total is $110.00. If paying by check, please make it payable to Wyckoff Board of Education and indicate the type of milk (1%, Skim or Chocolate) and your child’s grade level in the “Memo” section. CASH WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Garofalo at 201-848-5720 ext. 2202 or email her at dgarofalo@wyckoffschools.org.
Our online "Friday Folder" is a depository of important notices, flyers, and letters from the school and Wyckoff community. Please be sure to check the list of Friday Folder documents, which is included in each weekly E-Blast, and carefully read those that are pertinent to you and your child(ren). There is a link in each E-Blast to the electronic Friday Folder, which can also be accessed at any time through the Lincoln School website. If you need hard copies of any document on the Friday Folder, do not hesitate to reach out to the front office and we will be happy to print them for you.
On Wednesday, September 11th, Lincoln School students and staff are invited to wear red, white, and blue in recognition of Patriot Day. Each and every day, and this weekend in particular, we think of those that dedicate their lives in service to others. We honor, and remember, those who lost their lives on September 11th, and keep in our thoughts all who were affected.
Thank you again to you, your children, and the Lincoln staff for a great start to the school year. Have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,
Patrick Lee
Principal
