26-27 Incoming 8th Grade - LJHS
Dear Lincoln Families,
We are starting the process of selecting courses for the upcoming school year and recognize how important your involvement is in ensuring your student’s success. Our goal is to provide you with the necessary information to help guide your student in choosing the eighth-grade courses that best suit their needs.
The first thing that you can do to prepare for course selection is to review the Jr. High Course Catalog with some specific information about classes, including classes that require an audition/application.
Materials and 8th Grade Course Selections sheets will be distributed for review the week of January 19, 2026. Your student will come home with a purple course selection sheet to review at home with you.
You will receive an email within the coming weeks with instructions and links to schedule an appointment with the 8th-grade counselor to review the classes your student selected for next year. You may schedule a 20-minute appointment to meet with the counselor between February 6, 2026, and March 2, 2026. Student schedules will be finalized in August.
We are also linking our Athletic Flyer to keep you informed of upcoming parent meetings and tryout dates for the 2026-2027 school year.

At the bottom of the above flyer, there is an interest form to receive updates on tryouts. Interest form must be completed by February 6th. Coaches will communicate updates to those on the mailing list.
We look forward to collaborating with you during Student Success Planning, and thank you for the opportunity to serve your child. As always, if you have any questions about this process, please contact your counselor at the email address below.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Cochran
8th Grade Counselor
