🎄 Festive Fun at the Blossom Shoppe! 🌿
When you get teachers together to do something artistic, you know you’re in for a great time! Our Lincoln teachers visited the Blossom Shoppe to create beautiful Christmas pot arrangements, and the creativity was flowing.
It was a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season and enjoy time together. We’re grateful for moments that bring joy, laughter, and a little extra sparkle to our school community. ✨

Our 1st graders in Mrs. Vega’s class had an absolute blast learning about life long ago and how people once made butter! They worked so hard to shake, shake, shake their own butter in a jar, and their smiles said it all. The best part? Getting to enjoy their homemade butter with crackers! What a fun way to bring history to life and make learning memorable!

Right before Thanksgiving break, our Lincoln teachers brought the sunshine by dressing up for a Summer Day! From bright colors to beach vibes, they had a blast spreading warmth and smiles throughout the school. We hope this fun activity added a little extra joy to everyone’s week.
