Lincoln Elementary PTSA
Lincoln Elementary is a small school in Denver. Our community is our strength.
About
As parents, families, and community members of Lincoln Elementary, we are committed to offering support to staff and students in a variety of ways to ensure that our children have opportunities within the school and neighborhood. As a small school in Denver Public School, we understand it is incumbent upon us to vocalize our school’s needs within DPS and to support the culture that makes our neighborhood school special.
Through community-building events, classroom programs, school-wide assemblies, volunteer engagement and fundraising, we are committed to supporting the Mission and Vision established in the ‘22-’25 Strategic Plan.
Our volunteers enrich our school with energy, events, ideas, and resources while gaining a deeper connection to our school’s mission and values.

Programs
Grateful Garden
Lincoln’s Garden is made possible through the effort of many. Tasks include planting, weeding, watering, and upkeep, both on a one-day and on-going basis.
Pantry Program
The Pantry Program provides direct assistance in the form of grocery gift cards to Lincoln families experiencing food insecurity. This program is fully funded through donations provided by Lincoln families and runs year long.
Community
Speaker Series
Lincoln’s Speaker Series invites members of the extended Lincoln community to learn from inspirational people about a variety of topics throughout the year. For the 22-23 school year, we have chosen the theme: “Rebuilding relationships by honoring human dignity.” Thank you to the Circle Grant for sponsoring our Speaker Series this year, which will feature in-person and virtual engagements.

Lincoln Open Gym
Tuesdays @ 6:30-8:00pm
@ the Lincoln Gymnasium
Lincoln PTSA is partnering with Lincoln Elementary to organize an open gym Tuesday evenings starting November 29th at 6:30 pm in the school’s historic gymnasium. It’s a great way to get some exercise in with fellow, and similarly aged/paced, Lincoln parents (moms and dads), while supporting the PTSA. Suggested donations to the PTSA based on level of participation are encouraged. To learn more, contact Jarred Pinkston at jarred@pinkstonproperty.com.
