Dear Lincoln School Community,
Thursday, representatives from both the 4th and 5th grades squared off in our annual “Battle of the Books” competition! In a close and well-fought “Battle,” our 5th graders emerged victorious, with our 4th graders demonstrating a truly valiant effort. Both teams did an impressive job, correctly answering the vast majority of the equations. Congratulations to all participants, from team members to score keepers, and a huge thank you to Mrs. Husstege for her hard work in preparing students and coordinating the event. Great job readers!
The week concluded the ELA and Math NJSLA testing for students in grades 3 through 5. I’m proud of each student for trying his/her personal best. Grade 5 students only will be continuing their testing with the NJSLA Science assessment scheduled for Wednesday, May 21st and Thursday, May 22nd. Makeups will continue this coming week for students who were absent for any portion of the assessment. CogAT screening for 4th grade students, a brief online assessment as part of the Discovery program selection process, will be held on Wednesday, May 21, 2025.
Letters regarding our Kindergarten Preview for the siblings of current Lincoln students were mailed last week. If you do not receive a letter and your child is registered for September, please contact Mrs. DiMeglio at mdimeglio@wyckoffschools.org. I also ask that you kindly email Mrs. DiMeglio to confirm if your child will be attending the preview time to which they were assigned.
We look forward to seeing many of our families at the 5th grade’s production of the musical Willy Wonka on Thursday, May 29th. The matinee for students will be held at 2:00 pm, and the evening show for families and guests will be held at 7:00 pm in the Lincoln School gymnasium. In addition, our 4th and 5th grade Spring Instrumental Band Concert will be held on Tuesday, June 3rd. Performances of the Spring Instrumental Band Concert will also be at 2:00 pm for students and 7:00 pm for guests.
The spring “Bike and Walk to School Day” for all students and the annual “Bike Safety Rally” for grades 3 and 4 are both scheduled for Wednesday, May 28th. Please be sure that your child’s bicycle is in good working order and that they have a well fitting helmet. There will be a series of obstacle course stations for our 3rd and 4th graders in addition to a safety assembly for several Wyckoff Police Officers.
