The 6th graders donated $1,284.41 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital this week by participating in the St. Jude Math-athon. This is the third time Lincoln 6th graders have participated. The 6th graders have collected a total of $6,836.81 in donations for research. The students are not only applying their math skills but they are learning to be in service to the needy. A special thank you to Marilyn Drang and Tara Sharp for organizing and sponsoring this event.

Congratulations to Becca Schafer for being in the state finals in the Farm Bureau eXcel awards. The judges found her 2D art project “Wait ‘till Your Father Gets Home” to be among the top ten submissions in the state. The theme this year was “perceptions.” Becca will be invited to present her project at the state finals in Indianapolis. Over the last 13 years, PHS has had two finalists in music, one in writing, and two in art. We wish Becca the best. Thank you to Mark Wagner and Kim Hassett for their efforts.

Have a relaxing Spring Break!!
