🎓 Attention 8th Grade Families: High School Planning
For our 8th-grade students and families, we are entering a busy season of high school tours, school visits, and parent information nights. These opportunities will help students explore their options and begin preparing for the transition to high school.
Save the Date! - Lincoln Academy Open House for 8th Grade Students
Date: November 4th - Time: 6:30–8:00 p.m.
We encourage 8th-grade families to attend and learn more about Lincoln Academy and the opportunities available to incoming students.
October is Bullying Prevention Month, and next week, October 19–23, we will be celebrating Kindness Week! This week is all about celebrating the differences that make us unique and the kindness and unity that bring us together.
As we have for the past four years, we’ll be celebrating with a spirit week featuring fun dress-up days (see attached flyer)! Please encourage your students to participate and lead by example yourselves, especially on Wednesday, October 21st, by wearing ORANGE for Unity Day! 🧡
I’ll also share a Google document with books, videos, and activities focused on kindness and bullying prevention, organized by age group, for you to use as you wish in your classrooms.
Thank you for helping us spread kindness and create a school community where everyone feels welcome, valued, and included. Every little act of kindness makes a difference!
Happy Kindness Week! 🧡
