We call them secretaries but they do so much more in our schools than that – they hold our school together with their organization and problem-solving skills – they know what is going on when and where – they have the enthusiasm and energy for multi-tasking throughout their day. Thank you for your commitment and dedication to our students, teachers and staff. You are the heart of our schools!
Today we say “thank you” to our School Library Workers – Debbie and Laura! You continue to help our students find their way through the wonderful world of books, fostering creativity and strengthening knowledge. Thank you for your hard work and dedication!

Our school district is very fortunate that we have someone with your experience who volunteers to announce at our home events – Bud DeArvil. Your dedication as a volunteer is an inspiration to us all. Thank you being connected to our students and taking time for our district!
5th graders spent part of their day at the Junior/Senior High! They experienced classes, practiced opening combination locks and asked many questions! We look forward to this group joining us in August!
Exciting times in the Jr. High Science department. We recently added a Bearded Dragon, Cheeto, to our classroom. Thank you to everyone that donated to help us get a terrarium and a stand, so he has plenty of room to roam around and grow.
Our district is fortunate to have another great volunteer, Rita Vonada, who works on reading skills one-on-one with some of our younger Lincoln Elementary students. As a certified teacher and Reading Specialist, Mrs. Vonada has been volunteering her time in our district for 8 years – what a difference she has made in the educational journey for students at USD 298 Lincoln! She states that she gets to know each child and that each day is a new day for her because of the interesting quirks of each child. Thank you, Mrs. Vonada!
We remember the sacrifices made by the men and women who have served our country so that we may have freedom. Our community is honored to have a special group of men who volunteer their time as our local VFW Color Guard – we thank you for your service to our country and thank you for attending the Lincoln Leopard football games to raise the American flag.
Class of 2023 Parents: Highlight your senior in the 2023 yearbook by purchasing a Senior Tribute! You can design online at https://www.yearbookordercenter.com/ Our school code is 17033.
If you would like for the digital media class to design the tribute, the form has been emailed to you. Send the form with the photos to Lincoln Jr/Sr High School--Attn: Mrs. White. If you didn't receive the email or form, please email Mrs. White white.brenda@usd298.com The deadline is April 30.
Volunteers give their time and skills, and all without expecting anything in return. A great example would be Lincoln PTCO. This school year PTCO has – purchased a track tent, purchased school supplies for teachers, donated gift cards to teachers, donated snacks for students during state assessment testing, supplied meals for teacher appreciation and parent-teacher conferences, donated money to the LES AR program, and have student supply packets available for parents to purchase at the beginning of each school year. In order to fund service projects they have concession stands and tailgates at local sporting events and other fundraisers. We appreciate all that you do for our staff and students – thank you!
