When we feel our best, we are in the green zone. When we are not quite our best, we are in the yellow zone. When we are uncomfortable, we are in the orange zone. When we are extremely uncomfortable, we are in the red zone. Where are you right now? Do this check-in throughout the day.”

This month we focus on the link between identity and mental health, When students are misunderstood or targeted based on their identity- including but not limited to race, gender culture- it can cause emotional harm. But when their identity is affirmed, reflected, and celebrated, they are more likely to experience positive mental health and connection. This campaign encourages courageous, supportive conversations about students' strengths, values, and lived experiences. By learning with students and creating a safe, inclusive environment, we can help them understand their role in the community, advocate for their needs, and see how they matter in the world. Building school communities where students can remove their masks celebrating themselves and one another.

Lincoln Library is excited to share expanded hours programs starting on September 16th before and after school that will also earn students community service hours.

Mondays join Mr. Brewer before and after school from 8AM to 4PM for "Poetry & Prose" where you will read and write poetry (and prose) then participate on open mic nights @ our local independent bookstore The Libros, right across the street.

Tuesdays and Fridays join Ms. Moayeri @ 8AM for "Mindful Mornings" where we will start our day with some meditation, relaxation, games and general chilling out to ward off stress and anxiety.

Wednesdays join Ms. Kristiansen before and after school from 8AM to 4PM for "Films & Fanzines" where you will share your love of the screen, big or small, and create a handmade personal magazine aka fanzine to exhibit your passion.

Thursdays join Ms. Crabree & Ms. Moayeri after school for "Battle of the Books" where we will read some fun titles then go head-to-head with other high schools, annihilating their book knowledge for a trophy, free food, free books and best of all, bragging rights.

*Please be aware the information below is always fluid based on many moving parts. We will try to be as accurate as possible.

The District’s top priority remains the safety and security of our students and staff. As you are aware, we have experienced a nationwide and local increase of school threats that have disrupted schools, sometimes referred to as “swatting.” Swatting involves individuals making prank calls or social media posts to emergency services to provoke a large-scale response to a specific location. We know that these incidents can take a significant toll on the school community. Attached you will find communication flyers regarding School Threats to continue to ensure a safe and welcoming learning environment. See Something Say Something!

La principal prioridad del Distrito sigue siendo la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes y personal. Como usted sabe, hemos experimentado un aumento a nivel nacional y local de amenazas escolares que han perturbado las escuelas, a veces denominadas "aplastamiento". Swatting implica que personas hagan llamadas de broma o publicaciones en las redes sociales a los servicios de emergencia para provocar una respuesta a gran escala en un lugar específico. Sabemos que estos incidentes pueden impactar de modo significativo a la comunidad escolar. Adjunto encontrará volantes de comunicación sobre las amenazas escolares para continuar garantizando un ambiente de aprendizaje seguro y acogedor. ¡Si Ve Algo ¡Diga Algo!
