From our Co-Principals
Dear Parents and Students,
We’re in the home stretch, only 10 school days left before Quarter 2 ends on December 20! As we approach the close of the semester, we encourage all students to finish strong by staying engaged, attending school every day, and focusing on completing assignments. If there are any make-up or retake opportunities, now is the time to talk directly with your teachers to make a plan.
Remember, your teachers are here to help! If you have any questions or need support, please reach out. And don't forget that our after-school tutoring program is available for extra help.
Hornets, you've got this! Let's make the most of these final days and finish the semester strong!

Co-Principals, Lincoln High School
