On February 4, 2010, Mary Ann Mahoney, Janelle Johnson, and Rob Cox went before the Jefferson County Board of Education to renew our charter contract for another five years. After a few minutes of questions from the Jeffco Board, Lincoln’s contract was successfully renewed by a unanimous vote. The L.A. Board would like to extend a special thank you to Janelle for all of her hard work in preparing and presenting our contract renewal.
