 Johnson Edition
Class Pictures
On January 14th Miller Photo will be at Johnson to take class pictures. No need for any pre-ordering, just sent your scholar to school with a smile :)
Student Council
Student Council is hard at work planning some great events for the spring - be on the lookout for details on a high school ball, a middle & high school spring dance and a spirit week for all Johnson students!
Grand Frères & Grand Soeurs
Starting in January all Johnson upper elementary (3rd-5th) students will be paired with a big brother or sister, a student from the middle/high school. These periodic meetings between littles and bigs will allow students to grow relationships and further foster a strong community in our ever growing Lycée family.
MAP Results
3rd - 9th grade students are taking the Middle of Year MAP reading and math benchmark assessments from Monday, Dec 9 - Friday, Dec 20. Beginning Tuesday, January 7, families may request MAP scores by contacting datarequest@lfno.org with the following information: student’s name, teacher and grade level. Family score reports will be sent within two business days of request. Please click here for MAP FAQs and here for the Family Guide to MAP Growth.
Winter Fête
It is almost winter break and there are many reasons to celebrate! Friday, December 20th all Johnson students will have class parties during the last part of the day. Room parents support the teacher for these celebrations and we greatly appreciate all parent donations per room parent and teacher emails. Please email your child’s teacher and Office Manager, Sarah Franz if you’d prefer your child not participate in the fete. 
Holiday Themed Dress Down Day!
Johnson students can donate $2 to participate in a dress down day on Monday, December 16th. All proceeds of this dress down day will go to support the costly yet phenomenal 4th grade experience at TREE. 

Students are encouraged to wear festive holiday attire, however, there are reasonable dress expectations. Students may not expose more skin than a typical uniform and they may not wear clothing with advertisements, references to politics, religion, or anything that would be considered inappropriate for school. All shoes must be closed-toe, boots are not allowed. No costumes, flashing lights, or items that make noise. If a dress down outfit is determined to be inappropriate by administration, the student will need to put on a uniform for the day.

Brevet Café (Guess again, it's not a coffee drink!)
8th Grade Families: Please mark your calendar and join us for a Brevet Café (Info Session) at the Johnson Campus on Tuesday, January 14th, 2020 at 5 pm. The Brevet is a prestigious French exam that is taken at the end of 9th grade and as it will be quite different for the current 8th graders when they are in 9th grade, we would like to prepare and inform parents and students now.

8th & 9th Grade Families: Please join us for the International Travel Café (Info Session) at the Johnson Campus on Tuesday, January 14th, 2020 at 6 pm. We will share the initial planning for a high school trip to France in April 2021 and discuss next steps in terms of sign-ups and fundraising.
