Good morning Lincoln High! Welcome to LINKS LIVE! The Lincoln High Morning News Show!

I’m Liam Ducey, and I’m Mikil Foss

And now here’s a message from the IB program.

Lincoln High, we wanted to let you know that THIS SATURDAY Lincoln High is hosting IB Academy Day! It’s a fun-filled Saturday morning that middle schoolers come to our school (often with their parents) to find out if the IB Programme is the right fit. It’s a great way for middle school students to find out how great our school is and a chance for a great impression. If you know any middle schoolers who you think may be interested in this fun community of people, let them know to come this Saturday at 730 am to learn more about this great program–Go Links !
