Mrs. Yanule and Mr. Gmazel's English 1 class visited the collaboration space in the library for a library orientation and review of Office 365. Thank you to our librarian, Mrs. Koesche, for sharing this information with us! ❤️🖤
The Lincoln Way Central PPS Department provided grade-level programming utilizing our college and career readiness platform, SchooLinks.com. The School Counselors delivered three different interactive lessons designed to be hands-on workshops. Students discovered career interests, set goals, explored the college search features and prepared for the upcoming District College Fair on September 11th. Mr. Fetherling, Instructional Technology Coordinator, also made a guest appearance to the presentations to share information on the online organizational planner, StudyO, and LWC Activities.

Today in English 4, Mrs. Korczak’s class did an interactive collaboration activity where students worked to complete a puzzle by working together in groups. Students collaborated and strategized; a timer increased the competition! ❤️🖤
Mr. Raatjes and his 3rd hour Advanced Art students took advantage of some beautiful weather today to gain some experience with observational drawing outdoors.
