Mary Lynch Elementary School

As the 2020-2021 school year quickly approaches, it is my pleasure to welcome everyone back to another great school year at Mary Lynch Elementary. It is our mission to educate every student for a lifetime of success. We strive to challenge each student to grow academically, behaviorally, and socially every school year.

As a new school year approaches, it allows us to work hand in hand with all parents to ensure the very best for all children. Please feel free to reach out to me at 308-235-4696 or jsoper@kpslonghorns.org if you have any questions or concerns.
