Lincoln Elementary School - December 2014

Students Participate on the Santa Lucia Float

Students and parents are excited about our float, "Christmas in Paradise," which will be in the Santa Lucia festival on December 6.  Our students will wear grass skirts or Hawaiian shirts and sing "Mele Kalikimaka," the Hawaiian holiday song.  Come out and see the parade, starting at 5:30.

The Robin Peterson Library

The library was recently renamed the Robin Peterson Library after the former principal who was a dynamic presence in our schools, even after his retirement.  His great-granddaughter, Brennan, a Lincoln student, accepted a plaque to be placed in the library, along with Robin Peterson's photo, at the November assembly.

Lincoln students who met their AR goals for the first tri-mester were rewarded with a movie assembly.  At the end of the year, Lincoln has a reward for the "Million Word Readers," those students who have read a million or more words throughout the school year.  Lincoln has had as many as twelve students and as little as one a year, so it is quite a challenge!  Here are the top ten readers so far this year.  How many Million Word Readers will Lincoln have this year?

Camille Zavala, Lucille Nowland, Paige Wedehase, Rachelle Ureno, Ilianna Rosales, Addison Murguia, Nicolas Soto, Boston Robinson, Tobin Moshier, and Alexis Summers.
