Dear Lincoln School Families,
It is with sadness that I write this letter to our families, as we are still processing the events that struck the Lewiston community. As we all know, Maine is a big state geographically, but overall a small state when it comes to the communities. We continue to learn the connections that many had with those from the Lewiston area. I want to take a moment to assure families that our school community is here for you and your children, offering our unwavering support and care. The strength of Lincoln School lies in our unity and shared commitment to our students' success and well-being.
Here are our commitments to you and your family:
Safety: The safety and well-being of your children are paramount. We are working closely with local law enforcement to make certain our school is as secure and safe as possible.
Open Communication: We are here to listen, support, and collaborate to ensure a smooth and safe return to school. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns.
Support Services: Our dedicated team is available to provide support to both students and families. If you or your child needs to talk to someone, please reach out to us, and we will help make the necessary arrangements.
Community Unity: We believe in the strength of our school community, and together, we will find ways to heal and support each other. We are planning events and activities that promote unity and healing.
Routine and Normalcy: We understand the importance of maintaining routines in times of crisis. We will continue to provide a safe and structured learning environment for your children, helping them regain a sense of normalcy.
While the events of the past days have been heart-wrenching, please know that you are not alone. We are here to support you, and together, we will work through this difficult time as a united school community. Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We are truly honored to serve your family. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are here for you.
Wishing your family peace and healing,
Heather Gauthier and The Lincoln School Staff
