Bullet POINTS
Lincoln is the only high school in the district without a practice field
Taxpayers approved funds for a Lincoln Field in the 2022 Capital Levy ($5M)
Multiple student-athletes often don't return home from practice until 9-10 p.m., forcing them to work past midnight to complete their homework
The necessity for many teams to practice at 6 AM directly contradicts SPS’s recent initiative to adopt later start times, which was implemented to enhance the mental health of high school students
Lincoln spends over $50,000 per year of your tax dollars to bus athletes to different high schools for sports practices
Practice Buses often don’t show up and parents/older students are left scrambling to drive everyone to practice fields
Inequality for students without private transportation to distant practice fields
Lincoln needs a practice field, not a field meant for Varisty contests (Option C)
The proximity of two side by side fields at Lower Woodland Park (Option A) is endorsed by Lincoln coaches.
Options B & C don’t fit the criteria requirements outlined by the SPS Project Plan.
