From the principal's desk
Many have developed strong friendships which I hope will continue to connect over the summer months. Encourage your son or daughter to get out and play, ride their bikes but also continue to read, write, draw and if they choose also work on iReady or Zearn a little bit to continue their growth and development, so we do not see what is referred to as "summer slide." Today in your child's backpack you will find your son or daughter's iReady report. Our school had impressive growth and attainment across all grade levels.
This week we welcomed our incoming kindergarten students and parents. These newest Lincoln Leopards were excited to visit our building, see their classroom and meet many staff members.
Next week on Monday we will have our field day. The day will also include our seniors who will once again walk the halls of Lincoln four our legacy walk. The day will culminate with our 5k for our runner's club at Mt. St Mary's and Kimmer's ice cream outing for all that choose to come and join.
Wednesday morning our school will honor all of our volunteers, if you have been a volunteer this year please join us for a light breakfast and gathering on Wednesday, May 25th at 8:30 am on the south lawn.
We will also have our final clap out of our 5th graders, Wednesday, May 25th at the end of the day, this will be beginning at 2:45.
Students will walk the building and then exit the kindergarten doors (on the southside) where parents can view and take photos and clap them out of Lincoln. The 5th graders will do a final walk around the playground, then the front of the building along the sidewalk for all to see.
Please line up along the outer perimeter of the blacktop or along the north sidewalk to officially clap them out of Lincoln.
Continued access to iReady and Zearn for summer learning! Zap the summer slide
There are several ways to keep your child learning this summer.
One of the best, and most important, things your child can do during the summer to keep a hold of all they have learned throughout the school year is to read. All classes visited the public library, visiting storytimes, and checking out books to read is a great routine to establish over the summer.
Your child can also continue learning during the summer with i-Ready lessons and Learning Games! i-Ready Personalized Instruction provides students with lessons based on their skill levels and needs, so they can learn at a pace that is just right for them.
