On Friday, Lincoln Middle School had a Shining Stars party for students with all As and Bs, along with all Os and Ss for conduct grades throughout the first five weeks of school. They had an assembly line ice cream sundae bar, popcorn, and a prize raffle. What a great way to end the week!
Most of you know by now, but we had to give the Brown Jug back to Center Line after Friday's game. Our Abes gave their all like always, and we'll do all we can to claim it back next fall. In the meantime, there are still shirts available to commemorate the big event. Both Superintendents Mrs. Bognar and Mr. Haynes (from CLPS) made a bet, so Mrs. Bognar will be wearing a Center Line shirt to the next Board meeting.
Last Thursday, 2021 Alumnus Kamryn Ivy took time out of her work schedule to come speak to the dental students about what it was like going though the LHS dental program and how it landed her a job this past June working as a dental assistant at Marlow Family Dental. Students asked great questions and she explained the importance of dental safety by helping students handle dental anesthesia syringes. Students are also practicing hand washing in dental lab .
Last Saturday, Coach A and our Abes Football team were able to travel to see the Spartans win after a great victory of their own Friday evening. Check out their perspective from the stands. Go, Green!
