Today, USD 447 would like to honor our amazing paraprofessionals in classrooms across our district. Paras are the key to the success in helping to provide our students a great education. Happy Para Appreciation Day 2025! We could not do this important work without you ~ Thank you!


Attention Book Blaster families! We have only a few days left! Now is the time to contribute through the invitation from your favorite student or to make a school-wide contribution: https://app.booksarefun.com/LincolnCES67335/donations/new/iz2fhl7l
Thank you to everyone in our community and beyond that have contributed to our Book Blast event! Your support will help students take home as many books as possible, up to 10 each. In our quest to promote literacy and reading, every new book is like gold to be treasured!

Congratulations to our final Treasure Chest winner - Julian Ortiz. The Book Blast is going strong as we approach these last few days of the event. It’s not too late to complete your Treasure Map, earn your prizes, and help your child’s teacher earn a shopping spree to purchase books and supplies for the classroom! When 60% of the classroom students register and invite 10+ friends and family members, that teacher will earn a $100 shopping spree. If ALL the classroom students invite 10+ friends and family members, the teacher will earn a $200 shopping spree.

Power up! Our 3rd Book Blast Treasure Chest winner is Willa Martin! Congratulations!
Did you know that Book Blast contributions help ensure all our students receive books? After your student earns all 10 books from the book list, additional contributions help provide more books for all our students, classrooms, and the library. Your involvement makes a world of difference!
