As we approach the end of the school year, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each member of our Lincoln School community. It's incredible to think that May is upon us, marking the swift conclusion of another memorable year. Reflecting on my second year as elementary school principal, I'm reminded of the invaluable lessons learned, the occasional missteps taken, and the immense blessings of embarking on this journey alongside all of you. Your unwavering support, patience, and understanding have contributed to making this adventure truly remarkable for our Lincoln Lightning. I extend my deepest appreciation to each and every one of you.
Looking back on last year's newsletter, we shared updates on the construction progress of our school's addition, including plans to incorporate BECEP Early Childhood Special Education and Community Friends programs. While those plans haven't come to fruition for the upcoming school year, ongoing discussions and efforts are underway to integrate these programs into our school community in the future. I'll be sure to keep you informed as developments unfold.
What we can confirm is that the addition will serve as the new home for our Kindergarten classrooms come Fall 2024. With this exciting transition comes a flurry of activity as we rearrange and reorganize our classrooms throughout the building. Please join me in wishing our dedicated team the best as they work tirelessly this summer to prepare our school for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year!
Have a truly wonderful last weeks of school and great summer!
