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!!!!
