Please mark your calendars for a reception in honor of Dr. Jane Stavem, the new Lincoln Public Schools associate superintendent of instruction, to be held on Tuesday, October 23, 2012 from 4-5 P.M. in the Buros Library; please plan to join us in welcoming Dr. Stavem to Lincoln Public Schools. LPS Superintendent Steve Joel will also attend this reception so this is a wonderful opportunity to speak to these two community leaders.
