10-17 Lincoln PTO Newsletter

Please join us for a Lincoln PTO fundraising tradition, our Pancake Breakfast on Saturday,  October 26th, 8:00 to 11:00am.  Advance Tickets are just $3.50 per person and include pancakes, sausage, fruit, juice and coffee.  Buying tickets in advance helps us order the right amount of food, and it saves you money–tickets at the door are $4.00.  Click here to order tickets.  Thank you!

The new Girl Scouts Daisy Troop for Kindergarteners is hosting a parent meeting to hand out uniforms on Thursday, 10/24 from 6:30-7:30PM in the Gymnasium. It’s not too late to join! Please contact Lurana: “luranajbrown AT yahoo.com”.

 WASTE-FREE WEDNESDAYS–the lunch challenge continues through April 2014!  The Green4Good Committee will give out hand stamps to all kids who bring a waste-free lunch. This will be an on-going event each Wednesday up until our BIG Waste-Free Lunch Challenge during Earth Week. For tips on packing a waste-free lunch go to the District 90 website and click on the “Zero-Waste Lunch Tips” flyer.

Would you like an opportunity to volunteer for one hour and see your child during a regular school day?  We need parent volunteers to come in on Wednesdays during the lunch hour (11:25-12:25) to give hand stamps to students who have packed a lunch that creates no trash.

Don’t know much about packing a zero-waste lunch?  Don’t worry.  We’ll give you a brief training so you’ll be an expert! Please Click here to sign up. Lincoln School and the Earth appreciate it!  Thank you.
