From our Co-Principals

Dear Lincoln High School Students and Families,


In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s life and legacy, we invite you to participate in a campus clean-up at Lincoln High School on Monday, January 20th at 10:00 AM. This event is part of the MLK Day of Service. MLK Jr. Day of Service is more than just a day off; it’s a call to action that urges people to participate in the ongoing work of making the world more just, equitable, and compassionate. By engaging in service, we honor Dr. King’s vision and contribute to building the society he dreamed of.


If you are interested in volunteering or donating water or snacks for a Campus Clean-Up Day on Monday, January 20th, please submit your name to this VOLUNTEER FORM.
