Lincoln Elementary School Update
Watertown Unified School District | December 2023

Attendance Update
We have been doing much better as a school with our daily attendance rate. As a reminder, many of the activities and lessons that take place in a typical school day are hard or impossible to recreate at home. So it is exceedingly important that our students are attending classes at Lincoln STEM each and every day. Our daily rate is right around 93 percent and our goal this year is to have a daily attendance of 95 percent. Please help us reach our goal!
Mystery Reader
On Leap Day, Lincoln students had the opportunity to choose a "read aloud" book to listen to Each book had a mystery reader/Lincoln STEM staff member that surprised them and all had fun listening to a wonderful picture book. Each student also received a fun frog and a bookmark!
Read Across Lincoln STEM
Mrs. Weinheimer and our Student Leadership Team(SLT) have been busy getting us ready for the school-wide reading participation of Jungle Book! The SLT gave students clues about the book and revealed the name of the book last Friday. Each family should have had a book come home last week. Please read as a family and answer the questions that go along with the book. If you did not receive a book or have questions, please reach out to the school office. Happy reading!!
