Following the USD #298 school calendar, there will be no school on Monday, April 13, 2020. All district buildings will be closed. Certified and classified staff will not be working. Lunch or breakfast will not be available on Monday.
The Lincoln USD 298 Board of Education approved the USD 298 Continuous Learning Plan (CLP) and Waiver Application for submission to the Kansas Department of Education (KSDE). District staff worked with Building Principals to develop this educational plan supporting learning and continued development of academic competences for each grade and subject level for this unique end of the school year.
KSDE staff will review and then submit the District's CLP and Waiver Application to the Kansas State Board of Education (SBOD) for final approval in mid-April. The Final Approved CPL and Waiver Application will be placed on the District's website when the SBOE provides final approval for all plans across Kansas.
