Before Christmas break, our Lincoln 3rd and 4th graders showed what it truly means to care for others in our community.
Our 3rd graders hosted a canned food drive and completely filled a van with donations for the Mendota Food Pantry. Our 4th graders sold candy canes throughout the week and proudly donated $1,190 to support the pantry as well.
We are so proud of our students for their generosity, teamwork, and big hearts. Thank you to our families and community for supporting these efforts and helping make a difference right here in Mendota. 💙🦁
