CONNECT-PREPARE-SUCCESS

 I hope you and your family are safe and healthy as we get ready to return to school!  We are excited to begin the school year and want to make sure you have the necessary information to have a successful start.  We are excited to launch new programs and supports for all Lincoln students for the 20-21 school year. 

Our emphasis on each student will be: CONNECT, PREPARE AND SUCCESS!  Each of you are important and we will do everything we can for you to have a successful and enjoyable experience at Abraham Lincoln High School.  Each of you will have the opportunity to earn college credit for free, earn an Industry Certificate, take Advanced Placement courses and earn a 2 year Associates’ Degree.  At Abraham Lincoln our expectation is that every student will be prepared to be successful after high school and our goal is for each of you to attend a college and have an amazing career.

All students will participate in 100% remote learning from August 24th (grades 10, 11 and 12) and August 17th (Connect Academy for all 9th graders) until October 16th.  Please be sure to check our Abraham Lincoln High School website for specific information regarding our remote learning program and expectations: click here—https://alhs.dpsk12.org/\

How do I get my Chromebook?

• If you…

○  Have a working device from your previous DPS school

Then you are all set!

You do not need a new chromebook!

• If you…

○  Are new to the district

○  Turned in your DPS device at the end of the year

○  Have your own device, but not a device from the district

○  Have a chromebook that is not working

 Then you come get a new device during Distribution Days!

THE DISTRICT IS PLANNING FOR STUDENTS TO RETURN TO IN PERSON LEARNING ON OCTOBER 19TH.  WE WILL BE PROVIDING YOU WITH MORE INFORMATION REGARDING IN PERSON LEARNING OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL WEEKS.
