🐾 101 Days Smarter & Spotted with Fun! 🐾 Our students had a blast celebrating the 101st Day of School Dalmatian-style! They enjoyed being engaged in exciting learning activities and went on a “spot” scavenger hunt around the school. What a paws-itively perfect day of learning and fun! 🖤🤍

Kindergartens Donuts with Dad has been rescheduled to February 6th. 🍩

📚 Snow Day? Perfect Reading Day! ❄️ Since we’re home today because of dangerous road conditions, this is a great time to curl up, stay warm, and enjoy a good book! Families can access thousands of digital books and audiobooks through Libby—all from home. ✨ No Chromebook required! Libby works on phones, tablets, computers, and many e-readers, so students can read or listen on whatever device they have available. To get started: 1️⃣ Download the Libby app or visit the Libby website. 2️⃣ Tap “Add a Library” and enter your zip code. 3️⃣ Look for NC Kids Digital Library (K–5) and NC Kids Level Up (3–8). You can add both! 4️⃣ Choose “Sign in with my card.” 5️⃣ Select Lincoln County. 6️⃣ Enter the student’s ID number for the card number. 7️⃣ The password is the last 4 digits of the student ID. Once logged in, students will have instant access to thousands of ebooks and audiobooks—including titles that may not be available in our school library. 🎧 Don’t forget the audiobooks! They’re perfect for listening while relaxing, building Legos, drawing, or staying cozy with a blanket and hot cocoa. Stay safe, stay warm, and happy reading! 📖💙

Don’t forget! This Thursday we celebrate the 100th day of school, and Friday is the 101st day! Students will enjoy lots of fun activities as we mark these special days.

❄️ Today is a remote learning day, and our specials teachers are excited to share fun opportunities for students to participate in the Special Choice Board activities. We hope you all have a safe, productive, and successful learning day at home!
