Hello Roadrunner Families!

It is hard to believe that we only have four more days left of school! Remember that this week, school dismisses at 1:40pm every day. Be sure to check out the important things to note as we wrap up our school year.

Our lost and found items are out for display behind the office. Be sure to gather any clothing that your student has left behind before this Thursday. After Thursday, all remaining items will be donated.

Be sure to pick up your student's medication from the nurses office before you leave for summer. We cannot keep medications in our office over the summer.

The last day for school offices to be open is Tuesday, June 11th. We will return to open offices on Tuesday, August 6th, 2024. The District Office will be open for summer hours from 10:00am-2:00pm starting on June 14th and will resume normal hours on Monday, August 5th, 2024. If you have questions over the summer, please do not hesitate to reach out to the district office at 916-635-6350.

Also, we missed an important departure in our announcements last week! Our school psychologist, Mrs. Gonzalez will be departing for a job in another district. This new job will allow her more time with her family. We wish her the best and will miss her!

Please reach out to our office this week if you need any assistance before the end of the year!

Have a wonderful summer, Roadrunners!

We did not have an assembly this week, as we were touring everyone's Open House presentations! Last week's assembly is a good repeat reminder as we go into summer!

As we get ready to head into the summer, we want our Roadrunners to have ideas about how to be great Roadrunners in the community! In our assembly this week, we talked about the things we love about Lincoln and the ways we can follow the BEEP expectations outside of school.

Some great things about Lincoln are…

• McBean Park!
• Tasty restaurants!
• The 4th of July Parade!
• Going to Potter’s Games!
• Our awesome library!
• Lots of trails to ride bikes on!
• Cool artwork in downtown Lincoln!
• You are here!

We can keep our town awesome by being awesome in our town!

Be Safe

• Stay on sidewalks
• Obey traffic laws
• Be home before dark
• Wear a helmet on your bike, scooter, or other wheels!

Exercise Responsibility

• Respect other people’s property
• Clean up your trash, and other people’s trash if you see it
• Take responsibility for your actions if you make a mistake

Engage in Learning

• Talk to adults about ways to stay safe
• Go to the library and read
• Create new games to play with friends

Practice Kindness

• Share toys with a friend
• Donate to a food bank or shelter
• Be polite to everyone you meet
• Use proper language and volume, you never know whose baby sister is trying to sleep!

June 3rd - PTO Meeting, 6:00-7:00pm, Library

June 6th - Last Day of School!

June 11th - Last day for the school office

We'd like to thank our fifth grade Roadrunner Ambassadors for two years of service to the Roadrunner Ambassador Program. They were amazing!

We would also like to thank all of the Roadrunner Ambassadors for their positive patrol service. They are holding up a Starbucks gift card from the PTO for their service.

Please join us for our June 3rd PTO meeting! We will be starting our planning for the 2024-2025 school year and celebrating the work we have done this year! Our PTO is an incredible and friendly group of people who love new ideas. If you haven't yet made it to a meeting this year, please join us. We would love to have you!

June 6th will be the last day of school for the 2023-2024 school year. We have been honored to work with your student this year. It has been a joy watching them grow!

Over summer, remember to:

• Read a lot - in any language!
• Learn new things
• Go new places
• Laugh a lot!
• Have fun!

We are still looking for big donors to our PTO and Fun Run Fundraising goal of adding a digital marquee to the front of our school! The deadline to donate has been removed and we would love your support! Please click below to find a copy of a letter you can use to request donations from business owners you know in our area!

Registration for the 2024-2025 school year is now open! Please spread the word to anyone you know who has a new student, an incoming TK student, or an incoming Kinder student. They can find the link to register here: https://www.wpusd.org/in-our-schools/enrollment/new-student-registration/next-year-2024-2025

If your student currently attends First Street School on an intra-district transfer, you will need to request to have their intra-district transfer renewed each year. This process will open on January 19th. The link to submit your intra-district transfer can be found here: https://www.wpusd.org/in-our-schools/enrollment/transfers/intra-district-transfers

Students who currently attend First Street School and live in the First Street School boundaries do not need to do anything with registration. GATE students also do not need to submit an intra-district transfer as their enrollment rolls forward year over year at First Street School.

Student Quarantine:

The one remaining requirement is that students who are ill must be fever-free for at least 24 hours without the aide of fever-reducing medications before they are able to return to school. Please see the documents below for more detailed information.
