From the Principal Dear Parents/Guardians, I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and time with family and friends. We have seen great effort and positive results in the classroom and in extracurricular activities this year and the break was well deserved. I am thankful to be a part of this school community where we care for one another and support our students in their individual journeys. We are truly fortunate to be part of this special place. During this semester, we have witnessed success in the classroom and in our extracurricular programs. Over 1,200 students made the Honor Roll for the first grading period and were celebrated at our annual honor roll picnic. We also awarded 32 individuals with the Special Recognition Award for their effort in the classroom. In addition, we were well represented in state level competition in both athletics and performing arts. Our band received highest marks at their music assessment and they along with strings and chorus students showed their talents in their individual concerts. We are all looking forward to the Fine Arts Winter Showcase on December 5th and 6th. This combined concert is my favorite of the year because this event allows you to see the entirety of our wonderful performing arts program. In athletics, we again set the standard for North Florida. Our football team was district champions and entered post season play as a favorite for a state title. Cross country and volleyball finished wonderful seasons with individuals leading the area. Our bowling team competed at the state level and our boys golf team returned to state competition and placed in the top ten. Recently, our winter sports programs began their seasons with great success. I am proud of the way our performers and athletes carry themselves, both in competition and in our community. They are wonderful representatives of Lincoln High School and I applaud their hard work and dedication. With the strong start we have enjoyed, I know these Trojans have much more in store for us all. We will continue our focus on effort and hard work and I look forward to watching our progress throughout the year. Thank you, Lincoln parents and community members, for the continued support as we strive to be the standard of excellence! Go Trojans! Allen Burch Principal
