              Let’s Keep Lincoln Safe & Respectful

              We kindly ask all families to help keep our school community safe and respectful during drop-off and pick-up. Please drive slowly through school zones, follow carpool procedures, and stay in designated areas to avoid blocking traffic or driveways. We’ve also noticed some students leaving trash, picking up rocks, or walking through nearby yards. We ask for your help in reminding your children to respect the homes and property around our school. Let’s all work together to keep our neighborhood clean, safe, and welcoming for everyone. Thank you for your continued support!

              School Balances

              Keep an Eye on Balances!
              As we approach the end of the school year, please check your school fees and lunch balances regularly. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to the Finance Office — we’re happy to help!

              End of Year Testing

              As we head into end-of-year testing, we’re collecting small, individually packaged healthy snacks to help support our students during testing days. If you’d like to contribute, please bring donations to the front office. Items like granola bars, fruit snacks, applesauce pouches, or similar options are greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping us keep our students fueled and focused!

              End of The Year Shirt Sale

              Stock Up & Save: Lincoln Academy Year-End Sale! Get a head start on next year’s wardrobe! All Lincoln Academy apparel—including shirts and jackets—is now discounted through May 21st. Grab your gear now before the clock runs out!  

              Carpool Safety

              A quick reminder from USPS: please avoid blocking mailboxes when attending school events or during carpool. We’d also like to remind everyone not to park near fire hydrants. Thanks for helping keep our campus safe and accessible.

              We are always concerned about the safety of our students.  Please make sure that during carpool, you are following speed limits on the roads and in the parking lot, watching for students who are walking, and following our carpool procedures.  We appreciate your diligence in helping our students stay safe.

              Missing Books

              Hello!
              School is almost ended, and we are trying to gather the almost 400 missing books back to the library.

              Please help us out by going through your home to see if any got tucked behind the other pile of papers. 😉

              If the books are damaged or missing, please come in to the finance office to pay for them.

              Thanks so much for your help!
              If we locate missing books, we will be able to buy NEW books for the library rather than having to simply replace missing books.

              Help us make that dream a reality.

              With much appreciation,

              Katherine Jones

              End of The Year Testing

              We’re gearing up for end-of-year testing and would love your support! To help keep our students energized and focused, we are asking for donations of individually wrapped snacks such as fruit leather, crackers, etc,… If you’re able to contribute, please send items sufficient for an entire classroom(approx. 30) with your student or drop them off at the front office.

              We also encourage all students to give their best effort during testing. Participation is important as it helps us better understand each student’s progress and growth over the year.

              Thank you for your continued support!

              Lincoln Academy Sponsorship

              The sponsor program partners families and businesses with school classrooms/programs to enhance learning. Sponsors provide funds to classrooms/programs that provide hands-on learning experiences, field trips, children’s educational magazines, and learning opportunities.
              Lincoln Academy has a long history of individuals donating time as well as money to help our school become great! We love partnering with families and businesses to sponsor classrooms at Lincoln. Whether this is a monetary donation or volunteering in classrooms, we can’t operate without you. If you choose to be a class sponsor, your family name and/or business logo will be displayed on our TVs. Also, any donation is tax-deductible. Each classroom relies on a $500 sponsorship, which has been donated as a whole amount, or we have had families donate partial amounts. Sponsoring a class is a great option for families to partner with Lincoln when they don’t have the time to volunteer regularly.

              If you are interested in being a part of our sponsor program or have any questions, please get in touch with me at jchristensen@lincoln-academy.org. We are extremely grateful for any donation that is given.

              Thank you to everyone who has donated to Lincoln Academy, including our anonymous donors.

              Your generosity has not gone unnoticed. We truly appreciate your support!

              Not Finding What You Need?
              We want to make communication between our school and our parents as seamless as possible. If there are any events or details that have been missed, please let us know below! *Please include your email if you expect a response.

              Thank You All and Good Luck!
