LHS School Supply List

Following is the preliminary list of basic supplies for the start of school for all students:

  • Notebook
  • Paper
  • Pens, in a variety of colors
  • Pencils
  • Highlighters
  • TI84 calculator (or comparable)
  • Planner/calendar of choice

Individual courses may require additional materials. Those materials are generally covered by the Universal Supply Fee. Our Universal Supply Fee helps to support all the learning activities that happen in our classroom that extend beyond base curriculum. As a project-based school, the universal supply fee provides the resources for the deeper learning that happens throughout the year and helps ensure students have access to the tools they need. The universal supply fee is optional but encouraged as part of our partnerships with our families and community. Families in need of financial support can opt to pay an amount that supports their individual budgets.

Donations of the following items are much appreciated and gladly accepted by the school:

  • Tissue
  • Blue Tape
  • Hand Sanitizer
  • Band Aids
  • Forever Postage Stamps

SPS Laptop Distribution  

Lincoln is a 1:1 laptop learning environment. This year, all students will be issued an SPS laptop. Personal devices will no longer be allowed. Students should bring their fully charged SPS-issued laptop to school every day. Laptop distribution for an SPS laptop device will happen September 9th and 10th.  

In May last year SPS updated Superintendent Procedure 2022SP, that changed the policy where only SPS-issued laptops are permitted for use in classroom instruction, assignments, assessments, and testing, based on the following reason(s):   

  • With every student having a standard device, the district can maintain equity for all students and continuity of the educational and classroom environment for teachers.   
  • Personal devices cannot be managed or supported on the district network.   
  • District devices have applications that are subject to licensing agreements which do not permit installation on personal devices, including Classroom Management Systems (CMS)   
  • Personally owned devices may not provide the same safeguards to help prevent inappropriate online conduct   
  • Students do not have an absolute right to possess or use personal electronic devices (laptops and tablets) at school. School staff may further restrict the use of personal electronic devices on school grounds and during the school day absent an approved accommodation that addresses a specific and articulated student need (e.g. assistive technology)   
  • The district centrally manages updates and provides a consistent security posture across district devices.   
  • The district wireless network has been optimized for a high-density environment and works best with a SPS-supplied district device.
