HOMECOMING KING AND QUEEN Cross country runners Brandon Bailey and Lauren Shaffer were named king and queen at half time of the Homecoming Game last Friday evening. Unfortunately, the Tigers came out on the short end of a 21-14 score against the Clinton Redskins.

Mrs. McCarty's 5th grade class has been very busy studying rocks and minerals and what makes up the earth's atmosphere. We are the headquarters for Rush Hour Recycling. This is a program which allows our classroom to organize and collect all the paper and newspaper at Lincoln Elementary. Every two weeks, we collect, sort, and weigh our recyclable paper and have volunteers transport it to the recycling center. Thank you to all of the volunteers that make this program a success.

Sacred Heart School students worked very hard this week on their Outdoor Habitat. A garden spider was brought to school to show the students and they decided to give him a new home in their habitat. All of the students have enjoyed watching him make his web and eat his prey. The students are learning a great deal about plant life"

A Tree Planting ceremony at Lincoln Elementary School on Wednesday, September 27,2006, honored Grace Frese. The plaque at the base of the tree reads, “Grace Frese, Foster Grandparent Extraordinaire! 1981-2002.” Mrs. Frese was also extraordinaire when it came to gardening. Amongst her many botanical treasures always stood a Gingko tree. Her Lincoln tree is a Gingko. Pastor Troy Neujahr offered a blessing for the planting. He related Mrs. Frese’s attributes to that of a tree - a comfort and shelter for children. The tree was planted by her children, Mr. Jon and Mrs. LuAnna(Frese)Daane, and Albert Frese, and her granddaughter, Angie Bowlin. Fellowship time followed with many shared memories-all extraordinaire!

MORGAN MCFAUL from Hudson recently competed in the Jackson Citizen Patriot running series, where she earned a first place finish in the female 14 and under category. The running series consists of eight different runs, most of which are 5k distance (3.1 miles). The races attract runners statewide, but mostly from the Jackson, Hillsdale, Calhoun and Lenawee County areas. The series began back on April 15th and concluded on September 9. Congratulations to Morgan on her first place finish and for training hard and having fun over the summer. Morgan is currently an eighth grader at Hudson Middle School.
