Welcome to Lincoln Community Learning Center at Norwood Park Elementary schools. As the supervisor for these CLC sites, I can help you be aware of the services available in your community.

If you reside in or near the Norwood Park School district and are interested in accessing/utilizing a service or program available in Lincoln or if you are a parent who would like to enroll your child in a CLC after school or summer program, you may download the forms you will need here.

At both sites we provide at structured care for your child after school. Norwood Park School also has a before-school program that serves children starting as early as 7 a.m. Our before and after school programs are facilitated with school-based curriculum and pre-planned lessons to ensure that the children enrolled are engaged in an educational, yet exciting approach to learning.

In order to make possible and uphold the growing academic needs of children, we offer a “club” time for an hour a day at each site. Certified LPS teachers as well as community volunteers direct these clubs with content ranging from core subjects such as math, reading, science and health, to hip-hop, sports and girl/boy scouts.

We encourage consistency throughout the program by maintaining and implementing rules and/or expected behaviors for each child in the program, as they would be expected to follow in their own classroom on a daily basis. Our goal at Norwood Park is to offer an “extension” to their school day education and activities. We strive to bring in stimulating and motivational lessons that will promote your child’s learning after their normal school day is over.

Lincoln Community Learning Centers are a vital link between citizens and community services, and as a site supervisor I will ensure that the array of programs available are delivered to the people who need them.

Thank you for your time,
