Principal's Message

April, 2013

 Dear Parents, Guardians, Students and Friends,

 Our goal at Lincoln Elementary School is to create an environment in which students can build meaningful relationships, engage in hands-on learning, and acquire needed knowledge and skills to be successful citizens in an ever-changing society. The integration of technology in each classroom supports our educational goals, especially in the areas of literacy and mathematics.

Our classrooms are places in which students are both encouraged and challenged to be creative as well as critical thinkers. The teachers consistently collaborate with each other and parents. We realize that the communication and teamwork among the adults enable our students to grow academically and to successfully achieve. 

At Lincoln, we encourage students to be proud of their efforts and accomplishments, accept each person’s uniqueness, and respect one another. We believe that all students can learn, and we hold high expectations for them. The teachers, staff and I would like to acknowledge all the parents, volunteers, and other very involved adults who work with us to support our students at Lincoln. You are a major influence on the success of our students. 

 Throughout the school year, we have several opportunities for the school community to come together. Please join us in the following events that are scheduled in the coming weeks.
