Lincoln School News for January 17-21, 2022

REMINDER - NO SCHOOL TOMORROW, JANUARY 17 (MLK DAY)  

See you Tuesday!

Dear Lincoln Family

I am certain that almost everyone in the Lincoln Family knows of the car accident that occurred on September 20, 2021.  We continue to grieve the loss of Sylas and his dad while we celebrate the pure joy of living that Elliott brings to us.  Perseverance is our Positivity Project theme for the week. Elliott embodies what it means to persevere. His resilience and positive attitude should be a lesson to us all.  

A service for Sylas Orion Keys, age 13, will be held on Saturday, January 29th at 11am at First Church of God on Niles Ave.

News from the Lunch Room

We would like to remind everyone that breakfast and lunch are FREE again this year to every St Joseph Public School student. Please try to remember to preorder your student’s lunches when they are going to participate in lunch. This helps speed up the morning lunch count process. You will be allowed to order the Friday before the next week using www.sendmoneytoschool.com.

Due to the supply chain issues we are having with our vendors and food outages we will be providing a one week menu on our website and Principal blogs on the Friday before the next week. This will alleviate us having to make constant changes to a monthly menu and keep you better informed.

01/18/22 – CHICKEN NUGGETS, MUFFIN, SALAD CUP, FRUIT SELECTION AND MILK

01/19/22 – GRILLED CHEESE, TOMATO SOUP, GOLDFISH CRACKERS, FRUIT SELECTION AND MILK
