Thank you to the local business employees for taking the time to participate in mock job interviews with Mrs. White's senior ELA students. What a great learning experience for our seniors before they graduate!

C. Helus and T. Spear participated in the JH PTL Music Solos Wednesday at Pike Valley. Chloe received a II(two, excellent) rating for her baritone solo, and Teryn received a II for her Alto Saxophone solo. I'm proud of both of them for the work they put in to prepare their pieces and how well they represented Lincoln.

Did you know that being involved as a volunteer in our school is a way to show students that education matters? What does it take to volunteer – a willingness to pitch in wherever you can, a commitment to giving and helping, a positive attitude, and compassion to make a lasting impression on students. If you are interested in volunteering in our schools, please reach out to us by calling either school office or the District Office. We thank you, volunteers, for all you do for our schools!

Special thanks go out today to those people that help out at our home football games - Bud DeArvil for announcing play by play details, the VFW Color Guard for posting the flags, and the “Chain Gang” for your hard work on the sidelines. Thank you for your support of our student athletes at these games!

Our district relies on people to volunteer in our schools, communities and cities to show that stepping up truly makes a difference! USD 298 genuinely appreciates our volunteers!
