Hello Lincoln Heights,

– Next week will be a great week at Lincoln!

– No School this coming Friday (Good Friday) – Happy Easter!

– We have had a few questions about the St Columba Parking lot. The city has agreed to allow us to continue to use this lot until the end of June 2026. They have tentatively allowed us to use it next year as well. We have a committee made up of parents, school council, student transportations, WRDSB facility services and school Administration trying to plan next steps to improve access to the school. If you would like to join our committee let us know!

***We are currently looking for a parent volunteer to count the number of cars that use the parking lot morning and afternoon. We think this data will help make our case that a new solution needs to be found post construction on Lincoln and Mayfield. If you are willing to do this 1-2 days, please email or call us at the school! lnh@wrdsb.ca or (519) 884-4010.
