Dear Lincoln-Thomson Community,

It is my honor to welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year! As the principal of Lincoln-Thomson Elementary, I am excited to partner with you in support of our shared Mission and Vision:

“Lincoln-Thomson School is committed to providing every individual with opportunities in a safe and inclusive learning environment where they are inspired to take risks, problem-solve, ask questions, and learn from mistakes. In partnership with the entire community, we strive to develop compassionate, curious, and resilient learners who are equipped to thrive and lead in a global society.”

At Lincoln-Thomson, we ROAR! Our core values (Responsibility, Ownership, Attitude, and Respect) guide us in everything we do. Together, we are building a strong foundation, so our scholars grow into self-directed learners, collaborative teammates, critical thinkers, and responsible citizens.

Each day, our students pledge:

As a Lincoln-Thomson Tiger…
I am responsible.
I take ownership.
I have a positive attitude.
I am respectful.
I always do my best and ROAR!

We deeply value the school-home partnership and understand how essential communication is to student success. Our staff is eager to work alongside you to inspire a love of learning and foster a strong sense of belonging for every student. There will be many opportunities to get involved, whether through the Parent Organization (PTO), school events, or conferences. We'll keep you informed and hope to see you engaged in as many ways as possible.

Please join us for our Meet and Greet on Tuesday, September 2, from 2:30–3:30 PM.
All K–5 students are invited to play games, meet their teachers, enjoy a sweet treat, and connect with our wonderful Lynn community. We can’t wait to see you there!

The first day of school for Grades 1–5 is Wednesday, September 3.

Kindergarten students will begin on Monday, September 8, 8:15-2:15.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or comments. Let’s make it a fantastic year! Go Tigers!

Warmly,
Mary Kinahan, Ed.D
Principal, Lincoln-Thomson Elementary
