We’re excited to invite you to an evening of spooky fun on Monday, October 27th, along the new cross-country path by the Transportation Department!
🍂 Spooky Stroll – 5:00–6:30 PM
A free, family-friendly walk designed especially for our Lincoln Elementary families. Enjoy a festive, not-so-scary trail filled with fun sights and seasonal spirit!
🌙 Haunted Trail – 7:00–8:30 PM
A darker, haunted section of the path for adults, high school, and middle school students.
🎟️ $5 per person (fundraiser for the Junior Class - GoFan or Cash)
👉 Middle school students must be accompanied by an adult.
🚚 Come Hungry!
Food trucks will be on site throughout the evening so families can grab dinner or a treat before or after their walk.
🚧 Important Note:
The road between Lincoln Trail and the Transportation Department will be closed from 4:30–9:15 PM for the safety of all participants. Please plan accordingly.
We can’t wait to see everyone come out for this fun community evening filled with fall spirit!
🎓 More than $2 million have already been allocated to early scholarship accounts for students across Washtenaw County—funds that can be used for future college and career expenses!

National School Bus Safety Week: October 20–24, 2025
To recognize National School Bus Safety Week, our Transportation Department will conduct rear door evacuation drills on Wednesday, October 22, 2025 (weather permitting - reschedule dates: October 23 or 24).
These drills will take place before students are dropped off at school, so buses may arrive a few minutes later than usual. Schools have been notified, and late arrivals will be excused.
Please remind your child that this is a practice drill to help everyone stay safe in an emergency.
⚠️ Safety Reminder: Since the start of the school year on August 25, we’ve had over 5,000 red light violations involving drivers running school bus stop arms.
Please do your part — when the red lights are flashing, there is No Passing - STOP.
