Gahanna Lincoln High School

I’m excited to announce a new addition to our weekly newsletter, called "Inside the Classroom." Starting this week, we’ll be highlighting the engaging activities, projects, and lessons happening across our school. Each edition will give you a closer look at what students are learning, exploring, and creating every day. From hands-on experiments to collaborative group projects and everything in between, "Inside the Classroom" will showcase the inspiring work our students and teachers do together.

We look forward to sharing these moments with you and celebrating the growth, creativity, and excitement of our school community!

Go Lions!

We invite all families to join us in honoring our veterans at our annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Thursday, November 7 at 9:00am. The event will take place at our Veterans Memorial in front of our school.

This special event will bring our school community together to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served our country. During the ceremony, students will lead us in patriotic songs, share reflections on the meaning of service, and present thoughtful tributes to veterans.

We warmly welcome any family members who are veterans to attend so we can recognize their service as part of our program. Thank you for helping us teach our students the importance of honoring those who have dedicated themselves to protecting our freedoms.

Just a quick note to let families know that there will be no school for students on Friday, November 8 due to a scheduled staff professional development day. Our teachers and staff will be engaged in important training and collaborative planning sessions to continue enhancing the learning experience for all our students. Thank you for your support, and enjoy the long weekend!

In our Data Science math course, a full-year journey into the art and science of data, students dive into collecting, analyzing, and creatively interpreting information. This course challenges students to think critically about data in all its forms, merging quantitative reasoning, statistics, and computer science. Data science is about finding meaningful patterns, asking thoughtful questions, and drawing insights that help us understand the past, present, and future.

In a recent inquiry unit, students embarked on a fascinating project that combined data collection, analysis, and creativity. Each student tracked their own snacking habits, collecting detailed data on the types of snacks they chose, and created eye-catching infographics to illustrate their findings.

The goal? To answer a thought-provoking essential question: What do our snacking habits reveal about us? Through their infographics, students explored trends, made observations, and shared insights about how their choices reflect their nutritional priorities, preferences, and perhaps even the influence of their daily routines. Look through these vibrant visuals to see the personal and collective stories that emerged from their snacking data!

Our PASS (Positive Academic Support Solution) Room is now open after school! It is open Monday - Thursday from 3:40 PM - 5:00 PM, and is located in the ASC Lab (H163A). The PASS Room is operated by GLHS teachers who are ready and willing to provide academic support on assignments.
