Dear Lycée Families,
It is inspiring to see students back in the classroom! They are happy to see their friends, tell stories about their summers and meet their new teachers. Everybody has been feeling the promise of this school year which we are excited to share with you.
A note of thank you for all your positive messages, as well as for your patience as we normalize operations.

SPECIAL EDUCATION ADVISORY COUNCIL
LFNO has the opportunity to establish a Special Education Advisory Council through the newly passed Act 274. The Council is a group of LNFO stakeholders, including teachers, administrators and families, who seek to provide advice and feedback regarding special education policies, procedures, and resources and engage in community outreach activities to increase special education knowledge and support. The council will meet at least once per trimester, with the first meeting held in November.
We are seeking 4 - 6 LFNO parents/families to join the Council, ideally balanced between both campuses. As per Act 274, family membership extends to parents or legal guardians of enrolled students with an exceptionality, other than gifted and talented. Complete
this form
by
Monday, September 9
to indicate your interest in joining the Council. Please keep your responses under 150 words. E-mail Mandi Lehnherr, Director of Exceptional Student Services, at
mlehnherr@lfno.org
with questions.
