As a reminder school breakfast and lunch are free for all students!

On behalf of the entire staff at Oglesby Lincoln, we would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.

Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held on the evening of November 25th and the morning of November 26th.

Parent/Teacher Conferences are an important time to meet with your child’s teacher and receive an update on their progress.

The procedure for scheduling will be online again this year to make the process easy for parents and teachers. Please watch for this information in your email, on the school website, Facebook page, and form your child’s teacher.
