6th Grade Graduation Walk - We are looking forward to our yearly tradition of having our 6th grade students walk the halls of Lincoln Elementary near the end of our last day of school on Friday, May 31st. This allows our students and staff to cheer for them and wish them well as they end their time at Lincoln. 6th Grade parents are welcome to attend! If you are able to join us, please plan to arrive at approximately  3:15 PM. You are also welcome to take your students with you when we are done, our walk will end with a picture outside of our Gym.

Lost and Found - our lost and found is very full! Please be sure to have your students check for any missing items during the month of May. All remaining items are donated at the end of the school year.


End of the Year Lunch Balance In order to balance our accounts in the lunch program at the close of the school year, we need to have your child's lunch account balance at 0 or above.  Please bring it up to date as soon as possible.  Any remaining balance will remain in your child's account and carry over for next year. If your children will not be attending Cedar Falls schools next year, please let us know as soon as possible and they will be given a refund of the balance left in their account at the end of the year.


Our neighbor and partner, First United Methodist Church, is offering Vacation Bible School! (https://tinyurl.com/mstnunyz) Please click the link for more information!


A Note from the Health Office for 2nd grade families (http://tinyurl.com/4y58k3v3): The Iowa Department of Public Health requires a vision screening for those entering 3rd grade. If you have a well visit coming up, please ask for a vision check on your student and submit the results to the Health Office. 


Attention 6th Grade Families! This is a reminder that if you have a student entering 7th grade at either Holmes or Peet Junior High, your student will need the following immunizations:

  • Meningococcal (Meningitis) before they are allowed to start the 1st day of school or sports

  • TDaP within 60 days of the 1st day of school

The requirement for the Meningitis vaccine is that it contains A, C, W, Y and is received on or after your student’s 10th birthday.  A meningitis B vaccine does not meet this requirement.

Sturgis Falls Youth Choir Opportunity - Sign up any current 3-6th grader for the Sturgis Falls Children's Choir! All details and sign up form can be found HERE (https://tinyurl.com/yy28skef

See you in the fall!


Respectfully,
