Per the latest guidance from the Department for Public Health, all staff & students will be required to wear a face covering on campus when we begin in-person instruction on 9/28. Face coverings will only be lowered when eating or drinking or when 6 feet apart outside. We will be providing each student face coverings, and students will be permitted to use their own too as long as they align with school dress code.

Water fountains will be available to students when we return to in-person instruction on 9/28. The water fountains will be cleaned and sanitized frequently throughout the school day. If possible students and staff should provide their own reusable water bottle to be refilled with water (from the fountains) throughout the day. There will now be water bottle refilling stations at all of our schools. #TEAMLincoln

Our staff has been creative in finding ways to connect with students during COVID-19 NTI. Emery (pictured) recently participated in an apple picking during an occupational therapy telehealth session with Mrs. Hutti. As you can see, Emery had some help from her pal Stumpy!

Congratulations to Lucy Singleton for winning the 2021 Distinguished Young Woman program tonight!

Update: We have received our first shipment of mobile hotspots and will begin the distribution process next week. Family resource coordinators from each school will be reaching out to applicants to set up delivery of the hotspots next week. We apologize for the delay, but because of the high demand of hotspots due to COVID-19 it has been difficult to get these in bulk. We will continue to distribute them to applicants as they are received. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
