Our Lincoln School Staff is deeply committed to supporting the whole child. We believe academic rigor and social-emotional well being are equally essential to a student's development.
Our "why" for doing what we do every day...
We are in the final stretch! Please help us get through the year with minimal interruptions due to Covid-19. Students should not line up in the morning or be let out of cars before 8:45am. Please also remember that the north side of Orchard Ave. is No Parking/No Dropping.
After school, please DO NOT have your children collect and play on the playground. We work hard all day to keep kids in their specific grade level cohorts. It unravels all of that work if non-cohorted kids are all over the playground. I know this has all been difficult and I am hopeful that fall will be very different, but please, please, please follow our safety protocols for the next 8 weeks!
