Principal Weekly Update
We had another busy week here at Lincoln School! Our 3rd-5th grade students are bowling today at Dickinson House. A big thank you to the Oglesby Parks and Recreation Department for allowing our students to come and bowl.
Next Friday marks the end of the 2nd trimester please make sure to check TeacherEase for your child's current grades and reach out to teachers if you have any concerns. Report cards will be coming home on March 6th.
Save the Date
March 13th we will be having our annual St. Patrick's Day concert for grades K-5 at Lincoln School. The concert will begin at 2:00 with doors opening at 1:45. Students are able to be signed out at the conclusion of the concert.
Arrival Reminders
A few general reminders for arrival to ensure that all students arrive safely each school day.
K-5- The middle doors to the school open at 8:15. We kindly ask that students are not dropped off prior to that, because their is no supervision until 8:15. All car traffic should flow south on Bennett Ave. All students dropped off by car should be dropped off using the bus lane. The middle doors close at 8:45. If your child is arriving after that time please check them in at the north entrance of the school. Pre-K morning arrival begins at 8:45 at the north entrance.
5 Essentials Parent Survey
Our participation rate for the 5 Essentials Parent Survey is currently at 20%, and we would love to hear from as many parents as possible. Your feedback is vital, as the input you provide helps us effectively plan for the upcoming school year and make informed improvements to our school community. Taking a few moments to share your perspective ensures that parent voices are a key part of our decision-making process for the future.

Perfect Pastries Fundraiser
Students came home with information regarding the S.O.S. Perfect Pastries Fundraiser on Wednesday. The sale runs until March 6th. Please see the packet for information.
Attendance Update
Our weekly attendance rate is 91.8% this week. Hopefully we are getting through the worst of cold and flu season and people are starting to feel a little better. However, when students are ill they should remain home until they are fever free and feeling better. That will help us maintain a healthy school environment for all.
February Attendance rate is 92.0% Our yearly rate is currently sitting at 94.0% Our goal of 95% is still in reach!
Rooms
If you are having any trouble with Rooms access or getting linked to your child's classroom please contact your child's teacher. We are off to a great start utilizing the new communication platform.
