LCS@LFP - Friday, 10/23/20
Annual Giving Drive
We are asking every family to donate to the Annual Giving Drive by 10/31. This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and 100% of the funds go directly to help our school keep our small class sizes, our rich program, college counseling, athletics, arts, and much more. Please donate generously and know that no amount is too small. We want to see how close we can get to 100% of our community giving whatever they are able - every dollar counts. Strong participation from our families also inspires outside funders to support our school, too.
LCS Community Loss
It is with extremely heavy hearts that we share that another one of our very own LFP students lost their father last weekend. We have been in communication with the family and although the reality of the situation will take some time to sink in, they are currently safe. Our student support services team is providing counseling and we have the family’s permission to share a GoFundMe page that was created to help them through this hardship. If you would like to contribute on behalf of this family, please do so at their GoFundMe page. If you would like to support through other means (e.g., letter/cards of sympathy, gift cards, etc.), please mail them to LFP or drop them off at campus.
