Snow, Ice and Everything Nice

This weekend, many of us hit the slopes for some fantastic skiing at Sugarloaf. It was a cold and bright day on the mountain, and we returned healthy, happy and tired.  Several students skied and snowboarded for the first time, under the careful eye of the ski instructors.  Others stayed in groups, tackling different terrain and warming up by the outdoor fire.  Another ski trip is planned for March 2. 

Next week, Lincoln Academy will host Winter Carnival!  From Kelley Duffy, Director of Curriculum and Instruction: “This week students are starting to work on class banners and to plan their outfits for dress up days. Next week there will be Winter Carnival competitions every day, all leading up to the final challenges on Friday when we crown a Winter Carnival champion. This is one of the most fun activities of the year and we encourage everyone to join in some part of it. Check out our Flickr feed next week for pictures of all the fun!”
