Parents:

We appreciate your support and help thus far. We have had a successful first four months of school. As we look forward to the break, I'd like you to be aware of a couple of things.

Tuesday, Dec 23rd- We will be having an early out day. School will be released at 12:30 that day.

Website- We have redesigned our website and are continuing to add content through this process. We appreciate your patience as it was down.

Open Enrollment- Open enrollment has begun. If you have friends or neighbors who are interested in attending Lincoln have them apply for our lottery. They can follow the link on our website. We have tours for interested individuals Wednesdays at 10:00 and Thursdays at 4:00.

Thanks,

Mr. Hunt

Dear Parents,

Thank you so much for all the hard work and dedication you put into making our school a better place! Thank you for helping in and out of the classrooms, going on field trips, planning parties, bringing in pies for the teachers, and any other way you are helping our school.  

Thank you also to all of you who donated coats to our Coat Drive. We were able to collect over 200 coats to donate to the Asian Association Refugee Center! Mrs. Jones has a friend who helps there, and they were in desperate need of coats. Thank you for helping to give warmth to those less fortunate. They were greatly appreciated!

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to a fun and busy new year!

These donations will be used to help families in Utah County for Christmas.

• Don’t take coins out of other bins
• Any coins count toward your total. It doesn’t matter what coins, just make sure it’s U.S. currency. Points are worth coin value.

Rewards

The Inspirations Art Program is ready to Begin!  

"What a Wonderful World" is our theme this year and we are excited to see how the students are inspired to project what they see through their works of art.

Projects will need to be turned in during the final weeks of January to the Inspirations committee. Final dates are TBD but we will keep you informed.  

Category rules and details can be found on the Inspirations website charterinspirations.blogspot.com as well as the Entry Form.

Each student can enter once in each category with one Entry Form submitted with each.

How you can help as a parent/adult:

As you start or finish your holiday shopping don't forget to check out the deals on Amazon. Be sure to visit the school website and click on the Amazon link. By doing this a percentage of your purchase comes back to the school. This is one more way to give back this holiday season!

If you haven't registered your Maceys Perks account, Smith's fresh values, Target Red Card or Ridley's card be sure to do that too!

Dear Families, 

It's time to start saving your box tops! We will be giving out classroom prizes (K-6) and house prizes (7-9), so teachers will be in charge of collecting the box tops you send in.

More details to come! 

We had such an amazing turn out for our last drive. Thank you so much for all you do to support our awesome school!

Volunteering at Lincoln

Parent volunteers are an important part of the success of Lincoln Academy and are very much appreciated!

The Parent Council hosts Dollar Dress Days on the first Wednesday of each month. Students bring a dollar for the option to wear free dress. This free dress day is optional. Students are encouraged to earn their own dollar to pay for their free dress option.
