Best wishes to all and see you next year with a new theme.

Drama
Even if your child isn't in drama club this year, they may want to be next year.   This is one time when you can say yes to more drama in your life. 

Become a patron of the arts.

Safety in the Neighborhood
Dropping off our kids can be stressful, let's do our best to keep it safe.

Make complete stops, look at all corners, use signals, and yes…pay close attention to our crossing guards.  Also try to avoid unnecessary honking, the neighbors will greatly appreciate it.

 Note:  If you witnessed the accident at 16^th and California on the morning of February 6^th, please email the Lincoln parent Peter Aliaswho was driving his 7^th grade daughter to school.
