What is PBIS?
PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. PBIS is about teaching and promoting safe, respectful, and responsible behaviors. Students are recognized for making positive choices that follow our school expectations. When students do not follow expectations, they are re-taught the appropriate behavior and, when necessary, are given an Office Discipline Referral (ODR).

This event engages elementary students with jumping rope while empowering them to improve their own health and help other kids with heart-health issues. It is typically held during the month of February, and the children learn and practice their jump roping skills during physical education class to help improve their strength, gain confidence, build stamina, and extend their physical abilities in other activities.
An annual event that showcases the wonderful scientific thinking and creativity of our students. The event is open to all students at any grade level and is focused on a theme of importance to our school. Previous themes have been: agriculture, health and fitness, and living green. Science fair exhibits are judged on creativity, scientific content, and student understanding by guest judges from the surrounding community. Lincoln-Erdman’s Science Fair is genuinely an exciting display of student knowledge and imagination. It’s an occasion to attend with the whole family!
Do you like to sing, dance, or maybe you like to play an instrument? Do you have a hidden talent you want to share? Sharing your talent by yourself or with a group is not only exciting but also shows school spirit and can build your confidence.

Lincoln-Erdman students, staff, and families dress up in costumes to enjoy an evening filled with games, prizes, food, and fun.

In addition to several concerts presented by our fourth and fifth-grade school chorus, Lincoln-Erdman celebrates the holidays through song with an annual holiday program. This December program features performances by our fifth-grade String Ensembles, the fifth-grade band, and all students from K4 to Fifth Grade. Even our faculty and staff perform at the holiday program! We study and perform a variety of music that incorporates and supports the musical concepts being studied within the music classroom.
At this event, each student will be entered in one running event and one field event. All the events will take place before lunch. An obstacle course is scheduled to follow lunch. The boys' and girls' events will be held separately, with the boys competing in the running events first and the girls competing in the field events first. Each student will choose his/her running and field event for the day from the list below. Students have been introduced to various running and field events during physical education class, so hopefully, each student will find an event in which they enjoy and can excel. Ribbons will be awarded to the top ten finishers in each event, and every participant will receive a certificate of participation.
This day is meant to be one of fun, excitement, and good sportsmanship! The events are run by current and former Sheboygan Area School District employees, as well as students from North and South High Schools. Remember that a true sportsman will always congratulate their competitor, whether they win or lose. We hope to see a lot of handshaking and high-fives, not only among friends and classmates, but also opponents.
Our Fifth-Grade Recognition ceremony is held each year to honor and recognize our 5th-grade students as they complete their elementary school careers and wish them well on their new adventure—middle school! Refreshments will be served after the program, so plan to stay and share some memories of Cleveland and enjoy time with family and friends.
