Dear Kindergarten Families,
We’re excited for Grandparents’ & Special Persons’ Day performances tomorrow!
There are a few reminders to maximize your enjoyment -
• Only pre-registered guests will be granted entry.
• All pre-registered guests must present identification.
• Doors will open 10 minutes prior to each show time. Since the forecast calls for rain, please prepare accordingly.
• There is only one (1) adult bathroom on the first floor; please take a “tactical wee” before coming to Lincoln School.
Advanced thanks for your understanding and cooperation!
Regards,
Tiffany Jacobson, Ed. D.
