You are invited to attend the 21st Century Summer Academy at Highland Elementary!
21st Century is offering four weeks of summer programming available for all students currently in grades K-5th. Summer Academy is June 1st-June 29th and is open Monday through Friday. ALL four weeks will run daily from 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Breakfast and lunch are provided at no charge. Parent drop off will begin at 8:00 a.m. with parent pick-up at 3:00 p.m. Bus transportation is provided during these four weeks if you are within 10 miles radius of the school.
Our summer program will provide Math, Reading, Art, and STEM classes. Each class will provide hands-on activities and small group instruction, and will focus on specific areas where students struggle. Academy is NOT more school – it is an opportunity to learn in a new way and strengthen your foundation so you can start the upcoming school year ahead of the game rather than behind.
** Students with perfect attendance and good behavior will be eligible to attend planned field trips, fun days, and guest speaker assemblies.
Summer Academy has a limited capacity of 50 students. If your child is interested, please let your teacher know & we will send a registration form home to complete & return ASAP.
If you have any questions, please call Alyssa Salyers at 606-365-2768.
Students may want to bring a blanket to school that day for a little extra cozy comfort in the gym for the movie. Students can also wear pajamas if they choose.

ATTENTION!!! Face masks now optional
The Lincoln County Board of Education voted on Thursday, November 18th to make face coverings optional for all staff and students at Lincoln County Schools. This action will immediately went into effect.
Face coverings will still be required on school buses due to the federal mandate for public transportation. Face coverings will also still be required for students at the Lincoln and Garrard Technology Centers due to the state mandate.
The decision to make masks optional is due to the decline in cases in the county, the decline in the state’s COVID-19 positivity rate and the ability for all staff and students ages 5 and up to now have access to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
Face coverings are still recommended for visitors, staff and students while indoors but are no longer required. The district will continue to use other mitigation tools such as social distancing (when possible) and good hygiene to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Next week, Highland Elementary will be celebrating Red Ribbon Week with a week full of dress up days! Red Ribbon Week is a great opportunity for us to open up the conversation with our students about the effects drug and alcohol use has on their families/friends. Each day that a student dresses up they are entered to win a prize.
