Today marks 24 years since the tragic September 11th attacks, a day that Americans will forever remember. We're reflecting on how our JCHS students honored the victims and demonstrated acts of patriotism back in 2001.
At that time, students crafted and sold red, white, and blue ribbons, bracelets, and keychains as part of a fundraiser. In total, they raised over $1,000, which was donated to the American Red Cross.
Additionally, our JCHS students gathered at the high school's flagpole to pray for the victims and painted a mural featuring red, white, and blue artwork.

Our goal at Lincoln Elementary this year is to maintain an average attendance rate of 95% or higher.
In the month of August, we made that goal, and Ms. McCoy's class had the best percentage at 99.3%. Those students were rewarded with a special treat.
We look at this each month, and the class with the highest attendance rate receives a snack! Keep up the good work, Lincoln parents and students!
