Re: Change in Schedule for Monday, October 5th

As many of you know, Lincoln Klinger, former Mendon Elementary and Middle/High School teacher and long-time coach at Mendon, passed away this week.  Arrangements for Lincoln include a visitation in the Mendon High School gymnasium on Sunday, October 4th from noon to 3pm, and the funeral will be held on Monday, October 5th at noon at St. Edward’s Catholic Church in Mendon.

To allow our staff and families the opportunity to attend the funeral, we will have a half-day of school on Monday, October 5th. The elementary will dismiss at 10:50am, and the middle/high school will dismiss at 11am.

Thank you for your constant support and understanding. We are truly a family, and Lincoln has always been a big part of all things Mendon.

Sincerely,

Leasa Griffith-Mathews

Superintendent
