🌟 Leader in Me Spotlight – Habit 4: Think Win-Win

At Lincoln, we are continuing to grow student leaders by focusing on Habit 4: Think Win-Win. This habit teaches students that success is greater when everyone benefits.

Students are learning to:

Work cooperatively with others
Show fairness, kindness, and respect
Solve problems by looking for solutions that help everyone
Celebrate both personal and team success

Thinking Win-Win helps students build strong relationships, improve communication, and develop empathy—skills that support academic success and positive behavior in school and beyond.

How Families Can Support Habit 4 at Home:

Encourage compromise instead of competition
Talk through fair solutions during conflicts
Praise teamwork, sharing, and empathy
Model win-win thinking in everyday situations

When students learn to Think Win-Win, they become confident leaders who know that working together leads to the best outcomes—on the field, in the classroom, and in life. 🦁🏆

⏰ Attendance Matters & Tardies

Daily attendance and punctuality play a critical role in your child’s academic success—both now and long term.

Important Reminder:

If your child arrives after 7:45 a.m., parents must come into the office to sign the tardy log.

Why Attendance & Being On Time Matter:

Students who arrive late miss important instruction and classroom routines
Frequent tardies can affect academic progress, confidence, and focus
Strong attendance habits support responsibility, organization, and future success

Tips to Support On-Time Arrival:

Prepare backpacks, clothes, and lunches the night before
Set consistent bedtime and morning routines
Allow extra travel time
Talk with your child about the importance of being on time

Thank you for partnering with us to ensure students are present, prepared, and ready to learn every day.
