We have record numbers of participants in this year's Girls on the Run Program. This is a program that focuses not only on training for a 5K but character development and building self-esteem. The girls have been working very hard as a team and the 5K run will take place on Sunday, November 3rd at Stephens Family YMCA beginning at 1 p.m. Feel free to join us and support all the girls that participated in this event this year.

Thank you to PTO and all our volunteers for their hard work in this year's Dawg Walk. Also, thank you Lincoln Trail families for your flexibility and understanding for the last minute changes that needed to be made in order to keep all our students safe.

We have extra car tags! These really help move the car pick up line effectively and efficiently. Please let me know (call or email) if you would like one, or an additional one, for your vehicle.

• Parent Drop Off: For the safety of our students, please only drop students off between the 2 posts, not all along the sidewalk. Students will only be able to enter door by the 5th grade hallway. (This is the door closest to State Street.) Please do not drop students off in the parking lot. Unless students are part of our Kids Club program, they should not be dropped off before 8:00 a.m. This is imperative for the safety of all our students.
• Changes in Routine: If you need to make a change in your child's after school routine, please contact the school before 2:00 p.m. if possible. This will allow us time to inform students of any changes.
• Lost and Found: Did your child lose a coat? How about a lunch box? Make sure they check lost and found first! The lost and found will be emptied on the last day of the trimester, items left will be donated to our Mahomet CARES Closet.
  

If you like interacting with the kids, and can be flexible. If you enjoy different settings, and different age groups of kids. This is what you have been looking for! We need supervisors for the cafeteria and playground during lunch hours for students. f you are interested, you can either apply through the District's website or email Mrs. Hunter at mhunter@ms.k12.il.us.
