Saukville Elementary thinks theyโve got this one in the bag, but they donโt know who theyโre up against! As reigning champions, itโs time to rally together, pack those donations, and keep the crown where it belongs.
To make it even easier, our dancing Christmas Tree and Gingerbread Man will be outside during drop-off or pick-up to grab your donations right from your car! Plus, there are bins by the bus doors for students entering school that way. No excusesโletโs fill those bins to the brim!
What to Donate?
To make the biggest impact and help us win by weight, consider these food pantry favorites:
- Canned goods: Think soups, stews, beans, and vegetablesโheavy and nutritious!
- Bags of rice or beans: A pantry staple and great for adding pounds.
- Peanut butter or nut butters: A dense, protein-packed item thatโs always needed.
- Boxes of pasta and jars of sauce: A winning combo for both weight and utility.
- Cereal boxes, pancake mix, and syrup: Heavier items that families will love.
- Cooking oils (plastic bottles): A high-demand item and surprisingly hefty.
Non-Food Essentials:
Many families rely on food pantries for toiletries and cleaning products too. Consider adding these to your donation:
- Cleaning products: Laundry detergent, dish soap, multi-surface cleaners, and sponges.
- Toiletries: Toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, deodorant, and feminine hygiene products.
- Paper goods: Paper towels, toilet paper, and tissues.
Every item you bring helps our community and pushes us closer to victory. Letโs show Saukville & Dunwiddie what champions are made ofโgenerosity, teamwork, and a lot of heart! ๐ช๐๐
Our Art teacher, Mr. Nygaard, has been busy at the WJ Niederkorn Library, showcasing many beautiful pieces created by our talented Lincoln Lions. Be sure to stop by and admire all of their hard work!

With snow in the forecast, warm layers, including a winter coat, gloves, hat, snow boots, snowpants, and extra socks are a great idea for outdoor play. Layering will keep them comfortable if temperatures change throughout the day, and a change of clothes tucked in their backpack can help with any spills, puddles, or wet-snow adventures. Letโs make sure our kids are ready for a fun and comfortable day of learning, no matter what the weather brings!
We are currently seeking additional personnel to assist with operations in our lunchroom. If working with children in a fast-paced and fun environment is something of interest to you, please check out this job posting on WECAN: LES Lunchroom Supervisor Position on WECAN
We also gladly accept volunteers for those who are able to offer less of a time commitment. If interested in volunteering, please contact Barry Tremelling, our lunch host, at barry.tremelling@pwssd.k12.wi.us.
If your child will not be at school or will be tardy, please use Infinite Campus to report the absence.

The attendance line is currently still an option but we prefer parents use Infinite Campus. Thank you to all of you who've been using this slick, new feature.
Reporting an absence is important and necessary even if you have contacted your child's teacher.
The PALS Padlet allows everyone easy access to information about our Lincoln parent group, to get in touch with them, and/or to see updates of all their fun events!
