Dear Parents and Guardians of Lincoln-McKinley Students,

The staff of Lincoln-McKinley Primary School is excited to welcome you to the 2021-22 school year. Hopefully, you had a safe and fun-filled summer.

Our team is excited to meet all of the new students and welcome back those who are returning. An informational parent orientation will be held from 11:30 to noon or noon to 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 24. This is a great way for families to meet their child’s teacher as well as learn important procedures to make this a wonderful school year.

The first day of classes for second and third grade students is Wednesday, Aug. 25. Students begin the day at 8:20 a.m. and are dismissed at 2:45 p.m.

Placement letters and class supply lists were mailed out for enrolled students in June, students new to the district should be receiving theirs in a timely manner. Local stores have copies of the supply list, and it is also available on our schools website at http://www.blueponyk12.com . Choose the schools tab, then Lincoln-McKinley, and you will find the supply list link on the left side of the page.

For children riding the bus, you will find their busing information on the same website. To register them, click on the home tab at the top of the page, then scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the transportation and busing tab to fill out the bus registration form. If you do not have access to a computer or need help, please contact the Havre Public Schools Transportation Department at 395-8556, extension 1.

For students who have not had the opportunity to register, please take a moment to contact the Robin’s Administration Building at 395-8550 to schedule an appointment with Kelly Veis. The Federal Government has extended free lunch through June 2022, reimbursable meals will be offered again this year to students free of charge.

I look forward to hearing from you and seeing all of the new and returning students. It’s great to be part of a community where students, parents and staff strive to build meaningful relationships which support academic, social and emotional growth. Together let’s make this a successful school year. If you have any questions between now and the beginning of school, or at any time during the year, please feel free to call the school at 395-8554.
