F-S ALUMNI ASSOCIATION CONTRIBUTES TO LES PLAYGROUND

Recognizing the need for a playground at Lincoln Elementary, the F-S Alumni Association contributed $2,000 to the fundraising efforts.  The FSAA contribution will allow Lincoln Elementary to enter PHASE 2 of their playground project.  Thanks to our Franklin-Simpson alumni whose generous contributions allowed our association to partner in this important project!  We can't wait to see future F-S alumni getting physical on the playground!

LINCOLN ELEMENTARY PLAYGROUND FUNDED

The Lincoln Elementary PTO, administration and physical education teacher Lance Hamilton have worked diligently to bring a new playground to Lincoln Elementary--the first in its history.  Historically, Lincoln Elementary students have utilized the city/county "mini-park" for recreational activities.  In an effort to provide students with an enclosed, safe, structured environment for play and recreation, Mr. Hamilton submitted a grant in the amount of $23,000 to FSEEF that would fund Phase 1 of the playground project.  The FSEEF board of directors fully funded this $23,000 proposal realizing the importance of physical activity and social opportunities for Simpson County's fourth and fifth graders.  But, the LIncoln supporters did not stop there!  Through their Picnic for a Playground community-wide effort, the PTO raised over $4,000 for the playground.  Watch our website for photos of the playground construction!  Congratulations to Mr. Hamilton and Lincoln Elementary!!!!
