Adopt  A Classroom is a program where each classroom at Lincoln School is "adopted" by  a local business. The business visits the classroom approximately once a month to read a book to the class and/or talk about the various jobs available at the business. This program shows the
students that the skills they are learning now are also being used by the adults that visit the class, about numerous careers available to them, and about the various businesses in our community. The students often take a field trip to their adopted business at some time during the school year.

The Grandma Reader program consists of a number of retired "grandmas", and even some "grandpas", who volunteer their time to read with a student for 30 minutes once a week. The readers read to the same student throughout the school year. In addition to a Christmas party, the Grandma Readers end the year with an ice cream party where all the readers and their "child" get together at Lincoln for one big celebration!
