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.

Director of Food Services brings healthy cooking to life for Lincoln students

Students explored healthy, simple recipes, starting with a popcorn ranch spice blend before moving on to a more involved spring salad. The experience highlighted both a learning gap in basic food preparation skills and a powerful opportunity: students’ enthusiasm to try something new and embrace healthier choices.
