News & Notes from Lincoln Parish Schools (pre-K to 8th)

Ruston Elementary School students are participating in the newly formed Friday Reading Buddies program.

The Lincoln Parish Journal is providing our local schools an opportunity to submit nuggets from what’s going on at their respective schools in order to get more information out on its students, faculty and staff. The information below comes directly from those schools. Any school wishing to provide content each week can email to LPJNewsLA@gmail.com.

K/8th Buddy Reading – Our 8th graders are paired with a kindergarten partner, for a mentoring program, and have activities together throughout the school year.  Last Friday, our students read together.  Previously, they had a get-to-know-you popsicle date. 

1st Grade Bulldog Day – Mrs. Spillers’s class had a Bulldog Day last Friday.  Tech student athletes came to eat breakfast with students, and TechXXII also came to visit.  It was a day filled with “Tech-themed” fun.  This was a reward for their hard work fundraising for the recent Bullpup Boosterthon.
