Lincoln Elementary School 2021-2022 Leopard Families.
Every student and staff member available is a part of a Leopard Family that meets for 30 minutes on the first Wednesday of every month- we call this Family Time. Each family has their own color, and is composed of a group leader (teacher/adult) and a mix of students kindergarten through fifth grade. The goal of our Leopard Families is to provide students with a sense of support, belonging, and community. Our hope is that these school families will boost life/social skills for our students and further improve our school climate. They are also pretty fun! A big thanks goes out to Paw Print for making all of our t-shirts!
LES K-5 students had a wonderful treat this afternoon in celebration of reading over 4,000 books this first quarter. Bestselling children's author Jerry Pallotta had a virtual visit with students. Mr. Pallotta explained the writing process, how he gets ideas for books, and allowed students to help him as he writes his next book. Students were allowed to ask questions at the end of the presentation. All students will receive an autographed book as a keepsake when they arrive. Special thanks to the USD 298 Foundation for their generous donation to LES that allows for these special projects. Also thank you to Mrs. Breneman for her organization of this once in a lifetime learning experience for students.

When a student is nominated for a Leopard Leader by a staff member their picture (shown below) is displayed on the TV in our hallway for one week, they get to take a Leopard Leader paper home, and they get to ring our big hand bell on Friday when they come to Character Education class. Check out how these Leopards showed great character!

School transportation employees play an important role in the safety of Kansas children – so to help honor their dedication and expertise, Gov. Laura Kelly has designated today as School Transportation Appreciation Day. The theme for this year’s campaign is Be Safe – Know the Danger Zone. Thank you to our DS Bus Line drivers for taking special care of our students – we truly appreciate all you do!
In Kansas, there were 4,366 school bus drivers during the 2020-2021 school year who transported 188,848 students more than 23 million miles. Check out safety tips here: https://5il.co/10l7w
“School transportation employees play an important role in the safety of our students,” said Keith Dreiling, director of the Kansas State Department of Education’s School Bus Safety Unit. “There is a critical shortage of school bus drivers, not only in Kansas, but across the nation. We just don’t have enough school bus drivers to fill the need. We are asking community members to consider driving a school bus if they can, and I want to encourage the state of Kansas to help celebrate the men and women who currently sit behind the wheel of our buses and dedicate their time and talent to keeping our students safe.”
The high school football game on Friday will be played in the town of Canton.
506 S. Kansas Street, Canton, KS
