Spring break kicks off this Friday, March 21. Classes will resume Monday, March 31. Have a great break!
Parents and faculty of Lincoln, Willard and Roosevelt School students, please join us for our 4th Parent Forum sponsored by Lincoln PTO:
“FEED Your Kids Wisely”
Thursday, April 10
7:00 PM
Presented by Lara Field, MS, RD, CSP, LDN, owner/founder of FEED KIDS LLC
Kids need guidance when it comes to making smart eating decisions, and as parents we can use a nudge in the right direction as well. Lara Field will enlighten us by revealing the vital tools needed to establish healthy habits that nourish our children and encourage them to develop healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime.
The forum is about 90 minutes including an introduction, presentation, then Q and A. Many attendees enjoy taking time to digest the new information during the Q & A with other parents.
Come join us as we fuel up on ways to FEED our kids wisely, prevent future disease, and keep our families from running on empty.
School fundraising doesn’t get any easier than this! Raise money for Lincoln by going to this link and clicking on either the search Amazon box or Amazon gift card box. Lincoln Elementary PTO will receive 6% of all money spent at Amazon.com through this special link (4% on electronics). There are no fees and Amazon does not share any of your information. Share the link with family and friends so all our Amazon shopping helps Lincoln school. Purchases made on Amazon kindle or through the Amazon smartphone app will not count toward fundraising. Please use the link on the Lincoln PTO website to ensure that Lincoln gets credit for your purchases. Happy shopping and thanks for fundraising!
