Hello Lincoln Eliot Community.
I hope you enjoyed the weekend. I was camping with 27 boy scouts in Brewster. Lots of fun!
Back to School Night
is Thursday, September 29th from 6-7:15. It is also a 12:30 release date. All students are dismissed at 12:30.
Students are invited to join parents at Back to School Night. Please Please Please try to walk to school because as you know, parking is tricky. If you do need to drive then try parking away from the school on Jackson Road. Thank you for your cooperation.
Remember that back to school night is a time to meet your child’s teacher/s and learn about grade-level curriculum and expectations. It is not a time for individual conferences. Please be sure to check in with special subject and program teachers. This flyer will go home in folders.
School Picnic
What a spectacular evening of happy children and families! It was great to see so many families and teachers attend the picnic. Unfortunately, one student broke his arm after falling off a piece of playground equipment. He is in good shape and is sporting a colorful cast. A huge shout out to the PTO volunteers for organizing and selling pizza and Spirit Wear. . Thank you for all of the parents who donated baked goods. The PTO is off to a rocking start to the year. Check out the PTO website at https://lepto.org for information about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities.
