🌟 Attendance Awareness Month Continues! 🌟
September reminds us that every day matters—whether you’re learning in the classroom or leading from the front of it.
✅ For students, daily attendance builds confidence, keeps learning on track, and opens the door to future opportunities.
✅ For staff, showing up every day demonstrates dedication, teamwork, and care for our school community.
Strong schools start with strong attendance—for everyone. Let’s keep encouraging one another to show up, stay present, and make every day count!
💙 Thank you for being part of the #LincolnEffect. Together, we rise!

✨ Highlights from our September 2nd School Board Meeting ✨
At this week’s meeting, we were proud to recognize some outstanding achievements in our #WeAreLINCOLN family:
🎨 Pumpkin Primary was celebrated for its new Leader in Me mural, beautifully painted by Candee Masters.
📚 Pumpkin Intermediate Media Coordinator, Ms. Cyndi Moore, was honored for receiving the Laura Bush Foundation Grant for America’s Libraries—a tremendous achievement that will benefit our students for years to come.
Five students from both Pumpkin Primary and Pumpkin Intermediate led us in the Pledge of Allegiance, reminding us why we do what we do each day.
We are grateful for our schools, staff, and students who continue to inspire us with their leadership, creativity, and dedication! 💙🍎

✨ September is National Attendance Awareness Month ✨
At Lincoln County Schools, we know that showing up matters—for students and for staff.
📚 When students come to school every day, they build strong learning habits, deepen relationships, and stay on track for success.

This month, let’s celebrate the power of presence—because every day counts, and attendance is the first step toward achievement.
🙌 Thank you to our students, teachers, and staff who make the choice to show up each day! Together, we create the Lincoln Effect.

🌟 Flashback Friday 🌟
Our weekly spotlight on former LCS students turned LCS staff continues!
Meet Ms. Pamela Bollinger — a proud graduate of G.E. Massey, Love Memorial, Crouse Elementary, Lincolnton Middle, and Lincolnton High, now shaping young minds as a Kindergarten teacher at St. James Elementary.
Pamela says she was blessed to have many “favorite” teachers who made her feel seen, heard, and important — something she strives to do for her own students every day.
Her favorite part of the job? “I love my children, their families, and the relationships we form that last well beyond the time they are in my class.” ❤️
