All of the Lincoln-Titus staff have and will continue to work hard both in-person and virtually to assist our students to achieve academically and socially. From our custodial staff, who diligently and regularly clean and maintain our building to the needed standards for our health and safety. Our Food Service staff continues to provide lunches and food to our needed families. The monitors keep our students safe at lunch/recess and have pitched in the classrooms, and help at arrival/dismissal for our UPK – 5 children. The elves in the office – Mrs. Speedling, Mrs. Viviano, Mr. Rodriquez and our nursing office staff – Mrs. Bossio and Nurse Ferreira greet, support and assist our students, parents and teachers with a myriad of needs.

The Teachers – both classroom and specialty areas, Teaching Assistants and Aides are supporting our students daily in social-emotional areas and academic through traditional, innovative and creative ways. Our parents and guardians for your tremendous support at home – thank you!

Lastly, there are individuals now more than ever helping us stay afloat – our substitute pool, student teachers, school resource officer, technology department and transportation department are the behind the scene people who round out the individuals remaining steadfast in supporting the children in their learning environment.

We hope the Winter Concert and the Winter Art videos bring you warmth and smiles. Ms. Hartung and I thank all of our LTES community and we wish you a Healthy – Happy New Year to come.
