Some of our LHS DECA members spent the day at the State Leadership Summit at MSU! These future leaders participated in hands-on workshops, networked with peers from across Michigan, and continued building a strong foundation for their future careers.
Led by Mrs. Barnier, our DECA chapter is growing — and we’re still accepting new members!
Proud of our Railsplitters for representing Lincoln with excellence! 🔵⚪️ #LincolnForward #LHSProud #DECA #FutureLeaders

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.
