Lincoln students celebrate Black History Month by creating African American Living Wax Museum

Lincoln students celebrate Black History Month by creating African American Living Wax Museum

In recognition of Black History Month, the fifth-grade team at Lincoln School created an extraordinary African American Living Wax Museum. Over the past four weeks, students researched influential African Americans they admire.

After selecting a historical figure, each student thoughtfully brought that person to life by choosing clothing and artifacts that reflected their individual’s legacy and impact. At the press of a button, museum visitors watched as the wax figures came to life, sharing their history, contributions and a favorite quote.

It was a dynamic and engaging celebration that highlighted the meaningful impact African Americans have made throughout history — beautifully presented by our talented fifth-grade students.

A very special thank you to our fifth-grade teachers -- Christina DeLucia, Ryan Radow, Sarah Nazryan and Jeanneen Strand -- for guiding students through such a powerful and memorable learning experience.

Lincoln School Heart Health Kickoff

On February 4, Lincoln School kicked off Heart Health Awareness Month with an American Heart Association event, bringing students together to learn how movement and healthy choices build strong hearts for life.

Lincoln School’s annual No Place for Hate Pen Pal Meet and Greet is a school-wide initiative that celebrates inclusivity and strengthens connections between older and younger students. Older students proudly model positive and respectful behaviors, while younger students enthusiastically look forward to meeting their pen pals and continuing these friendships throughout the year.
