Principal's message
Dear Lincoln Families,
This past week, due to the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, we celebrated Flag Deck a little early and had an opportunity to honor our Outstanding Citizen award winners as well as new members of the Reading Millionaire’s Club! We are so proud of our Lincoln Leopards! In addition, just in time for Thanksgiving, we featured our incredibly creative 3rd graders with their Turkey in Disguise creations. I look forward to this assignment every year; the creativity of our students never ceases to amaze me! If you would like to view Flag Deck, here is the link: https://youtu.be/iHycIg-uXCI.
As you are likely already aware, Orange County moved into the Purple Tier (most restrictive) due to COVID cases in the county. Fortunately, because we are already open to students, we are able to continue in-person instruction at all of our NMUSD school sites. Although moving to the purple tier does not change our day to day at school, I think it is a great reminder for us to keep up with everything Lincoln students, staff and families are doing to stay healthy and safe. Masks, social distancing, frequent hand washing, and enhanced cleaning, disinfecting and sanitizing procedures provide multiple layers of protection from the spread of illnesses. Thank you for your continued cooperation and support!
With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season upon us, if you are anything like me, it helps immensely to be able to plan ahead. With that in mind, I want to plant a couple seeds for upcoming events. First, the book fair is coming! Our book fair is virtual this year and will be running from November 30-December 13th. Second, we will be participating in Toys for Tots this year, with new, unwrapped toys being collected here on campus November 30-December 4th. We hope you will join us in helping make the holidays a little brighter for children in need. More information about both of these events will be forthcoming, so be on the lookout!
I am sure I don’t need to remind you this week is a short one; students will only be attending school on Monday and Tuesday. I hope your Thanksgiving celebration, although perhaps different from what you originally planned, is full of love and the kinds of warm memories this time of year so often brings. I wish you a healthy and safe Thanksgiving, and I hope all of our Lincoln Leopards have a restful break!
Grounded in Gratitude,
Dr. DeMicco
