Principal's Message

 

Welcome to Lincoln Elementary and the 2023-2024 school year.  Here at Lincoln Elementary School, we are committed to providing the best possible educational experience for our Lincoln Leopards. The elementary years are a precious time in your child's life, and they pass by quickly. We are here to ensure that these years are filled with memorable and meaningful experiences that set the foundation for a lifetime of learning. We believe that learning should be enjoyable, and our school aims to pave the way for a future of intellectual curiosity and growth.

Our PBIS school motto, "Everybody R.O.A.R," stands for Remain Safe, Be Responsible, and Be Respectful. These principles guide our daily interactions and create a positive and inclusive environment for all students. We believe that when our students feel safe, take responsibility for their actions, and show respect to others, they are better positioned for success.

Our focus remains on increasing student achievement, and we are dedicated to doing whatever it takes to help ALL our students thrive and look forward to coming to school each day. We want our children to flourish academically and personally, and we are committed to providing the support and resources they need to do so.

Throughout the year, our dedicated educators and staff are committed to providing your children with a rich and engaging learning experience. We encourage you to actively participate in your child's education by joining our Parent Groups, volunteering at school activities, and being an integral part of our school community. You are your child's most important teacher, and your involvement is invaluable in shaping their educational journey.

Whether you are a new visitor to our school or a longstanding member of our community, I invite you to explore the Lincoln Website to discover the exciting activities and programs happening in our classrooms. Our campus is alive with the energy and enthusiasm our children bring every day. I encourage you to take a tour, meet our faculty, and experience the warmth and vibrancy of our school community.

Thank you for entrusting us with the education of your children. We are honored to work with them each day and look forward to a fantastic year of growth, learning, and achievement at Lincoln Elementary School.  Wishing you a wonderful and successful school year!
