Lincoln School News for Sept. 10-14, 2018

SCHOOL PICTURE DAY – MONDAY, SEPT. 10th

Lincoln School Picture day will be this Monday, Sept. 10th beginning at 8:30. Order forms were sent home with students this week and can be turned into the classroom teacher.  You may also order on-line at www.geskusphoto.com/fallorders.  
Use the School Web Code:  3718MEZIJWYWLR.  All students will get their picture taken whether they order pictures or not in order to make student ID cards for our students and for class composites.  Pictures can also be ordered after school pictures are taken as well.

Little Library
Please visit our new Little Library located outside of the school office!
Here's how it works: take a book, read it, return it for someone else to enjoy and get a new one (or keep it if you love it and are in need of more books at home). With permission from families, students can also bring books from their home libraries that they no longer read and place them in the little library for others to enjoy.

NEW SECURITY SYSTEM INFO

All SJPS buildings had security systems installed over the summer.  All visitors must ring our buzzer system during the school day in order to enter the building.  For ease during the end of the day pick up process, please try to refrain from picking up your student before 3:40 if possible.  Please review the pick up and drop off procedures outlined in the blog sent on September 4th.
Also, we ask that parents or other adults only enter the building through the main entrance. Staff will discourage visitors from entering through doors other than the main entrance. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Lincoln PTO News
Our next mixer will be on Friday Sept. 21 from 10-11 am at MADDOG 5/1 Revolutionary Fitness.
