The French Remote Tutoring Program |

Johnson: We are so excited to have completed our first week of remote French tutoring! As more tutors’ background checks have cleared, we have created more groups and notified additional Johnson families of their time day/slot for tutoring. You should have received a link via email with instructions. If you applied and have not received information, you will receive an email next week with further instructions. |

LFNO Johnson campus uses PowerSchool for grades and attendance. There is a parent and student facing portal that is now set up and instructions for accessing it will be mailed home next week. Please reach out to admissions@lfno.org if your home address has changed since completing summer re-registration forms. This replaces Unified Classroom, which we are no longer using.

Imagine - what if together, we could walk to the moon!? From September 23 to 30, all students in Brittany, France will record all their moves with friends, relatives (and overseas twins) to cover the distance between the Earth and the Moon, 385,000 kilometers.
They can walk, run, swim, ride, jump...
The aim of the operation is to remind young people to stay active despite the current situation.

At the beginning of the summer, we announced the HVAC work to be done at the Johnson campus by NOLA Public School (NOLAPS). Although we are nearing the substantial completion phase of the project, some mechanical issues came up, causing some condensation in the building. NOLAPS has taken some steps to address the immediate issue. NOLAPS has also met with LFNO, the engineer and contractor to address the issue at the sources. LFNO will continue working to work with NOLAPS to ensure that all conditions are met for our school physical reopening.
