A quick reminder as we are now in full swing around here: If a student either needs to leave early for an appointment, is going to be late to school because of an appointment, or isn't feeling well, we need a parent or guardian to either email frontdesk@lincolnlutheran.org or call us at 402-467-5404 and let us know a) name of student b) reason for absence c) time they need to leave or will return if leaving early or coming late. We will get your student a pass so they can be dismissed on time. Students returning need a Dr./Dentist note saying they were seen.
Parents and Students: A quick reminder that you need to have your lanyard with you EVERYDAY. Find a good spot for it like your vehicle or better yet, your backpack so you have it with you. Parents, this is how students sign in and out of school, pay for lunches as well as sign in and out of Afterschool Care.
Welcome Back! We were very excited to see all (or at least part) of our students' faces today! We pray that this school year, while unique, will be a blessing for you all. Thank you parents for abiding by our "no guests/parents in the building" guideline. If you need to contact us feel free to email us at frontdesk@lincolnlutheran.org. or call at 402-467-5404.

Sports Camp Update: Along with the Governor's announcement earlier this week, the NSAA has provided guidelines as well.
- As of June 1, weightroom use will be allowed. There will still be a limit of 10 people in a group. We are working on a plan that will include several groups working but in different spaces and not having interaction with each other. Those plans will be communicated when finalized. We are looking forward to having students back in here working out as soon as we are able and are committed to doing this in a safe manner.
- All summer athletic camps, clinics, and open gyms for any sport are still prohibited. We are working with coaches on being prepared and having contingency plans if we are given the ok to have athletic camps and open gyms again. Ultimately, we must follow the guidelines of the NSAA.
Here is the information from the NSAA:
NSAA Update
As a result of the Governor’s announcement on May 11, beginning June 1st NSAA member schools are permitted to open weight rooms for voluntary strength and conditioning sessions.
Prioritizing the health and safety of all students and staff must remain the focus of each NSAA member school.
These requirements must be followed when conducting voluntary strength and conditioning sessions:
Maintain social distance by being 6 feet apart
Follow gathering guidelines of groups of 10 or less students
Groups of 10 or less must be pre-determined
Once groups determined, students may not switch from one group to another
Interaction between groups shall be avoided
Sessions can only include weightlifting, running, and exercises designed to promote physical fitness.
Sport-specific drills are not permitted, and sport-specific equipment may not be used.
Implement diligent and effective cleaning and disinfecting of frequently touched objects and surfaces following the guidance of the CDC
It is the responsibility of each NSAA member school to comply with the above requirements.
Additionally, NSAA member school sponsored camps, clinics and open gyms are prohibited in any sport at this time.
Should the conditions warrant, these requirements will be adjusted.
Any further official updates will be posted on the NSAA website and the NSAA social media platforms.
