Important Reminders
- Please remember that LFCPS will be closed next Thursday 11/9 for a Staff PD and Friday 11/10 in observance of Veterans Day. There will be no Rainbow on either day.
- Students can no longer wear shorts. Please refer to the Uniform Policy in our handbook if you have questions about what is acceptable winter wear.
Just a reminder that when your child is sick they must remain home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without Tylenol or Motrin. If they have the stomach bug, they must also remain home until they no longer have symptoms for 24 hours. If you have any questions regarding your child's health or ability to attend school please don't hesitate to call the nurse's office at 508-799-7500. Thank you and stay healthy!

Student Spotlight
She writes, "Nicolas is an exemplary student at Learning First Charter. Not only is he intelligent, but he is kind, safe and responsible as well. Nicolas has an amazing ability to draw countries from memory and knows almost every single country in the world's national flag. His knowledge and talents in geography are very impressive. I am so lucky to get to know him this year as my student, and we are lucky to have him in our school community!"
Wow, such talent! Keep it up, Nicholas!
